4th Annual Summit on the Mature Workforce, November 5, 2008, Calgary KAA-Boom! KAA-Boomers! KAA-Booming! Back in the 1950s and 60s when young baby boomers read their favourite comic books, they frequently saw the word KAA-Boom. It meant that Batman had whacked the Joker or Superman had once again thwarted Lex Luther. KAA-Boom meant a very big impact. Forty years later, it's the sound employers are hearing as the bottom falls out of the labour market. It's the big impact retiring baby boomers are having on organizations throughout the Western World. |
