Wisdom at Work: The Making of a Modern Elder
Autor Chip Conleyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 sep 2019
'Learn how to cultivate a beginner's mind...and be the sage counselor'from the foreword by Brian Chesky, cofounder and CEO of Airbnb.
At the age of fifty-two, after selling the boutique hotel company he founded and ran for twenty-four years, Conley joined Airbnb as Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy. Though rich with experience, the industry veteran lacked the digital fluency of his twenty-something colleagues. He quickly discovered that he'd been hired as a teacher and mentor, but was also in many ways a student and intern. What emerged is the secret to thriving as a midlife worker in today's world: learning to marry wisdom and experience with curiosity, a beginner's mind and a willingness to evolve.
Igniting a bold, urgent conversation about age and ageism in the workplace, Conley liberates the term 'elder' from the stigma of 'elderly', and reveals the value of wisdom that can only be accrued through years on the planet.Wisdom at Workwill teach you how to be indispensable in the second half of your working life.
