The one "ism" that affects us all. Everyone experiences age-related
bias at some point in their careers, but for women the costs are
greater, since gender and age accrue to make you a double target
for bias. Sure, there are laws and organizational rules prohibiting
age-related discrimination, but those don't always translate to
lived experience. Ageism affects the opportunities you have access
to at work, how others perceive and value you, your health and
well-being, and your income. Ageism can affect how we see
ourselves, too; for example, not throwing our hat in the ring for a
promotion because we think we've begun the slow march to
retirement, or because we think we're too new to the workforce to
be climbing the career ladder. But you can change the narrative
around age for the better. Even if you're not a leader or policy
maker, you can make a positive impact through how you talk about
age, what you do when you witness bias, and what you encourage. No
matter which end of the age spectrum you're near, this book will
inspire you to: Identify the age-related assumptions you hold
Recognize the structural biases that exist around age and gender at
work Respond to age-related bias in an effective and professional
manner Contribute to a safer work culture where you can disrupt
unintentional boundaries Diversify your network and board of
mentors The HBR Women at Work series spotlights the real challenges
and opportunities women experience throughout their careers. With
interviews from the popular podcast of the same name and related
articles, stories, and research, these books provide inspiration
and advice for taking on topics at work like inequity, advancement,
and building community. Featuring detailed discussion guides, this
series will help you spark important conversations about where
we're at and how to move forward.
