“It’s on all of us. With our first breath, we’re all aging. … We all have to work on embracing the gift that is aging … to tackle our own internal stereotypes and age discrimination.” -@Ramsey_Alwin, @NCOAging #EQS24 @CWILabs @WorkforceINCL @AMWorkforce @cpc_nyc @NICOA_Aging

Clayton Fong, president/CEO of @NAPCA_aging, is introducing the next #EQS24 panel, on “Pathways to Economic Stability for #OlderWorkers.” @CWILabs @WorkforceINCL @AMWorkforce @Ramsey_Alwin @NCOAging @cpc_nyc @NICOA_Aging @HFisherWHUR @WHURfm

@Ramsey_Alwin @WorkforceINCL As people live longer, they want and need to work longer, says @Ramsey_Alwin. The previous linear life stages of education➡️work➡️#Retirement are a thing of the past, and policies haven't caught up with this shift.

Can age inclusivity lead to a thriving workplace? A panel at #EQS24 is diving into the benefits of a #multigenerational workforce – particularly w/#OlderWomen and workers of color. @CWILabs @WorkforceINCL @Optimum @KristinaOptimi1 @JFFLabs @SHRM_CKO @SHRM @HFisherWHUR @WHURfm
