It Gets Late Early Walky Talky: Ageism in the Workplace

​Join us as we talk about our experiences getting older in the youth-obsessed tech industry, learn more about how age bias impacts the workplace, share tips for creating a lasting and fulfilling career, and even just vent.

​💡 Did you know that right now you're the youngest you'll ever be—and also the oldest you've ever been? Aging is living, but according to the World Health Organization, 1 in 2 people hold ageist attitudes.

​In the workplace, we all bring age bias, which affects candidates, employees, and the bottom line. Ageism impacts everyone, but it especially affects women and marginalized groups. As society ages, so does the workforce. Companies need to attract, employ, and retain older workers. Those who adapt now will be better prepared for the future.

​Let’s go for a “Walky Talky” together. 👟

​​​The goal is simple: To move your body to fuel your mind, connect more fully with yourself—and others—by connecting with the world outside. Studies show you’re twice as creative while out walking as you are slumped behind your desk. And you need those big ideas to make the most of your big life.

​​​How it works: We pair you and another walker to help the other unstick something about their professional or personal lives. How should you ask for that promotion? What should you tell that friend who’s too needy? Are you on the right track with that side hustle? Nothing’s off limits here.
