What does it really mean to stay relevant at work as we age? In this episode, Junus sits down with Nancy Yu to explore how ageism quietly shapes hiring decisions, leadership roles, and workplace culture. Nancy shares insights from her experience in corporate turnarounds, offering practical ways companies and individuals can rethink age, value, and career longevity.

They discuss how government incentives and flexible job design can support age diversity, and why staying connected to the frontlines matters more than ever. Nancy also reflects on the power of curiosity and personal agency, reminding us, “If you have to explain to people where you bring value, maybe it’s time to reposition yourself.”

This conversation offers a fresh perspective on navigating career transitions and challenges outdated assumptions about age and work.
