My Facebook memories told me that 1 year ago today was my first appearance on Nine’s Today Show. Georgie and I had a spirited discussion about the older workforce. I was optimistic back then. I was FINALLY seeing some cracks in our decades old discrimination against older workers.
Not so much anymore. I’ve read recent stories that Ageism is still alive and well and increasing in our new COVID environment.
I’d love your thoughts. What do you see?
If you’re over 50, what do you find? What are your plans for the future? Remain in full time work, do contract work, side hustle? Start your own business?

In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
I had a great time speaking to Ben O’Shea on The West Australian‘s The West Live show about what really drives people to change jobs.
Like in all booms, companies within WA are losing great people for the allure of a high pay packet working in a FIFO environment. Can leaders do anything to stop this from happening (spoiler alert – yes!).
Why do people look for other roles (spoiler alert – despite what most leaders think, it’s rarely about money)?

According to the most recent research by Gallup, 85% of the global workforce is disengaged. That stat that has not moved in well over a decade and COVID has not seemed to impact it at all.
In the US Gallup saw a historic rise in engagement scores shortly after COVID – followed by an equally historic fall.
Yesterday’s post – https://lnkd.in/gHs_rUW provided a calculator to help you figure out how much you were losing in productivity for every member of your team who is disengaged.
I had a comment on that post asking, “Why are they disengaged?”
If you think #thegreatresignation is related to Covid or the current skills shortage, think again. This graph from the Bureau of Labor Statistics clearly shows that, with the exception of 2020, people have been changing jobs in increasing numbers since 2009. While this is a US stat, I believe the trend is definitely global.
I’ve often said that Covid accelerated other workforce trends that had been building for years. I think what we see with this graph is the result of...
Talking reimagining talent acquisition with Nate Hewitt of Sapia.ai on their Pink Squirrels Podcast.
We had a very spirited discussion around:
What companies are getting wrong with talent acquisition right now
How companies stand out against their talent competitors (even with little or no budget)
