EMBA Conference: "Senior programmed obsolescence? Debunking the myths"

April 25, 2024 at 6:15 PM (Paris time)

The conference will be held online via Teams.

Teaser

In the job market, perceptions are shifting - what once was considered prime age is now seen differently. This presentation challenges the pervasive but false narrative that productivity and adaptability inevitably decline with age, a misconception that limits opportunities for senior leaders. It's not merely a call to change how we think but a strategic imperative for businesses to harness the varied strengths of a workforce that spans generations.

The topics covered include:
  • Counteract prevalent myths about the productivity and adaptability of senior professionals.
  • Reveal the competitive advantage of drawing on the wide-ranging experiences of an intergenerational workforce.
  • Formulate strategies to counteract the notion of planned obsolescence for senior leaders.
  • Inspire future leaders to cultivate an inclusive culture that values contributions from individuals of all ages.
