Women experience gender bias from the start of their careers. The gender pay gap, penalties for motherhood, and lack of equal opportunities for advancement put women at a disadvantage in the workplace.

- What is gendered ageism
- The effect of gendered ageism on professional women in the workplace
- How to defy the ageist assumptions we believe as well as those we encounter in the workplace.
