АКТУАЛИЗАЦИЯ Нов отговор въз основа на коментарите на OP.

Можете да използвате ANALYTIC функция ROW_NUMBER и LAG .Нещо като начало на групов метод:

SQL> WITH DATA AS(
  2  SELECT 100 EmployeeID, 'IT' Department, to_date('01.07.2014','DD.MM.YYYY') dt FROM dual UNION ALL
  3  SELECT 100, 'IT', to_date('01.08.2014','DD.MM.YYYY') dt from dual union all
  4  select 100, 'IT', to_date('01.09.2014','DD.MM.YYYY') dt from dual union all
  5  SELECT 100, 'HR', to_date('01.10.2014','DD.MM.YYYY') dt from dual union all
