Over 50? What Are Your Plans?

My Facebook memories told me that 1 year ago today was my first appearance on Nine’s Today Show. Georgie and I had a spirited discussion about the older workforce. I was optimistic back then. I was FINALLY seeing some cracks in our decades old discrimination against older workers.

Not so much anymore. I’ve read recent stories that Ageism is still alive and well and increasing in our new COVID environment.

I’d love your thoughts. What do you see?

If you’re over 50, what do you find? What are your plans for the future? Remain in full time work, do contract work, side hustle? Start your own business?

Curious.

Ignite Global helps future-focused organizations build and retain the workforce they need to thrive in the Decade of Disruption. We will help you break through old-school paradigms to understand and embrace the Future (Now) of Work. In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help organizations keep the right bums in the right seats (recognizing that this starts with hiring the right people).
