In this e-book, the author explores ageism through multiple lenses, with the intent to raise situational and organizational awareness — as well as provide pathways to hope and prosperity, by sharing strategies to help combat the challenges facing older workers. Many of the scenarios shared come from his own personal experiences, with the remainder coming from friends, colleagues, and research he has conducted over the years. He also examines age-related perceptions, some beginning in the 40s, that result in damaging, self-fulfilling prophecies — sabotaging any chance for workplace satisfaction, or career success.
