Expired?
The Science of Staying Indispensable When Your Company Bets on YouthBy Ivan PalominoRecorded TrackLength3h 17m
About this audiobook
You didn't lose your value at 50. Expired? decodes workplace ageism and gives you the tools to become indispensable again, not by reinventing yourself, but by updating.
Grounded in behavioral science, cognitive psychology, and adult neuroplasticity, this book explains why "too old to learn" is a belief, not a scientific fact. Inside you'll find: the Vintage strategy for translating your experience into value your company recognizes today, a five-contacts-a-week network protocol, and micro-habits for rebuilding confidence without competing with thirty-somethings on their turf.
Written from twenty years of work in organizational culture across four continents, and from the author's own experience of becoming invisible at 46.
This book is for you if you're 45 or older, you've noticed the room getting quieter, and you want an honest diagnosis followed by a concrete plan. Every chapter ends with a Take Action section. Not January resolutions.
