Quote - Ageism

It is amazing to me, given the challenges concerning qualified / willing applicants for available jobs, that more companies do not factor in ageism into the DEI initiatives. I did a presentation about ageism yesterday to members of a LA-based organization and I indicated that only 10% of DEI initiatives discuss ageism (Harvard Business Review).


I can and will only ask: Why?


The quote below sums up the feelings of many hiring managers. Your thoughts are appreciated in the comments section below.


"I think that ageism is a cultural illness; it's not a personal illness" - Frances McDormand
