Episode 32: LeBron's Lasting Legacy - A Master Class Against Age Bias 

(10-23-25)The National Basketball Association (NBA) season is upon us and LeBron James is running it back for his 23rd campaign. TWENTY-THIRD! 😲 A few reminders of what the world looked like when LBJ was drafted in 2003: 1️⃣ Facebook had not been launched 💻 2️⃣ Uber and Lyft did not exist🚗 3️⃣ Kelly Clarkson had just won the first season of American Idol 👩‍🎤 Notwithstanding his unprecedented accomplishments and his still playing 🏀 at an incredibly high level, there exists in the media so much mockery of someone LeBron's age competing with players, literally, half his age. This public ridicule got me thinking about how our implicit biases massively and destructively impact the way we view 👀 people of certain ages in our workplaces. This kind of age bias is insidious and needs to be addressed.‼️This week's Leadership Video examines the realities of age-based bias (against both older and younger employees) and discusses the absolute and meaningful benefits having employees of different ages truly provides.💡 As always, thanks so much for watching, for commenting and for sharing!Duane Morris LLP Duane Morris Institute______________________________________________________Michael S.
