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. Further, as we approach our 50s and beyond and show visible signs of aging, we struggle with the intersectionality of gender bias and ageism. Gendered ageism has a dramatic effect on both their job security and financial future.
In this chat, we’ll cover:
- 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.
