The paper focuses on generational conflict in the organization. It discusses the need for understanding the process of conflict, particularly in the context of developing countries. It is argued that the exigencies of development create value differences between the older and the younger generations which lead to a conflict. Based on interviews of entrepreneurs from family managed small businesses and of managers from public and private sector companies as well as on some published case studies, the paper attempts to identify sources and symptoms of generational conflict. Some suggestions are made to resolve these conflicts in Indian organizations.
