Why We Need Older Women in the Workplace?

Why is it excellent, preferable, to have women over 40, or 50, or 60 in the workplace?

-> It’s simply excellent to have a diverse workplace — people who don’t look, think, act, or talk like the boss — and as the data that follow illustrate, women over 40 are dramatically underrepresented in the top tiers of organizations.

Venture-based start-ups with five or more women onboard are significantly more successful than those without.

-> Women who have achieved some level of success by middle age probably already have more experience with what has come to be called the “gig” economy than mid-career men who’ve been slogging it out in the same company for a decade or more.

-> Because women move back and forth between work and home, they have in some way already adapted to the new way of doing business. It’s the men who expect a secure paycheck and a steady climb who have to readjust.

To make your team feel psychologically safe you need to first create an environment that encourages it. You can do it by following simple steps: 1. Learning from Mistakes: In a psychologically safe environment, teams are more open to admitting their mistakes and acknowledge each other for their work.
