Thursday’s Assignment

Big Idea: Growing older in the workplace isn’t something to fear (it can actually work to your advantage)

Outline:

  1. Intro – a personal story about being older and managing a team of young people. How nerve-wracking it can be to not be considered “hip” anymore.
  2. Studies on diversity of ages in the workplace
  3. Example 1 of an older person in their job who is really inspiring (possibly Bill Gates, because you wouldn’t expect him to be as cool as he is – and he’s untraditionally cool)
  4. Offer tips on how to manage young people (being open to new ideas, giving lots of freedom, staying in tune)
  5. Tips on how to stay current with technology and tools (learn even if you don’t try, let your team guide you into the ones that are important)
  6. Tips on finding your inner “cool” (think about what makes you passionate and what your team can learn from and look up to in you)


Subheads:
