YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked yet pervasive issue of ageism—the bias that can lead to stereotyping and discrimination based on a person’s age. Whether it’s subtle remarks about being “too young” to lead or assumptions that older workers can’t keep up with technology, ageism affects people across the spectrum and shapes workplace dynamics in ways we may not even realise.
We explore why this topic is so important, how ageism manifests in the workplace, and what we can all do to foster a more inclusive culture. From personal stories to practical advice, we discuss what ageism means to us, how it can impacts confidence, and share insights on how to challenge these biases for the benefit of everyone.
No matter where you are in your career, if you are keen to support the creation of a diverse and inclusive team, this episode will help you better understand ageism and empower you to contribute to a more age-inclusive environment.
