HR Besties: Ageism with Special Guest and Meeting Crasher Maureen Wiley Clough

Today's agenda:

• Introducing Maureen Wiley Clough, host of the It Gets Late Early podcast
• Drunk interview
• Cringe corporate speak: culture fit
• Hot topic: ageism in the workplace
• Most people are ageist... it's the only "ism" that can affect everyone
• What sparked Maureen's podcast and focus on ageism?
• HR professionals should feel empowered to discuss ageism in an organization, such as being included in DEIB discussions
• More years can mean more experience and enhanced job performance (...duh!)
• Colorado's Job Application Fairness Act
• Age discrimination from job recruiters and hiring managers. What can members of HR do to point out these biases?
• Intergenerational mentorship can be very beneficial to an organization (and can go both ways)
• Questions/Comments
