The Workforce Is Aging. Here's Why That's Good News.
About this episode
Everyone's talking about AI reshaping the future of work, but there's a quieter revolution underway: the workforce is getting older — fast. First, Dan Pontefract makes the case that aging employees aren't a liability but an untapped asset. Then Jeff Schwartz zooms out to explore how resilience, opportunity, and human-centered thinking can help us thrive in a rapidly accelerating world of work.
