EVERLYN WAI on How To Collaborate With Diverse Age Groups

THIS IS A BONUS INTERVIEW THAT MADE ITS DEBUT right here with our #artofcareer channel. Personal thanks to Everlyn for carving out time to deliver the important message :) Everlyn is a seasoned Finance Leader who is presently leading the helm with a global consulting company. Not only did Everlyn throw in her 'two-cents worth' of advice to the jobseekers, listen closely as she sprinkled actionable suggestions for #employers & #diversegroups as well - very cool !! Here are some useful (albeit approximate) time stamps to help with your listening: 03:18 About Everlyn's most recent experience with working with diversity. Can you guess what exactly happened? 07:53 Advise to employers to give diverse talent a chance, yay! Adjustments & Assumptions when communicating: 11:22 with an older (or late career) workforce 14:05 with a younger (or early career) workforce 19:34 Practical tips on how to harness the power of social media & technological tools to bridge our communications gap. 20:11 A reminder for all employers to look inward: "If someone competent still cannot deliver, 70% of it is likely to be due to your processes and 30% due to their skills" 28:01 Example of the adjustments members of the homogenous team need to make to include one from the heterogenous side. (Useful analogy for jobseekers to empathize with the target employer & environment, beyond the mere age differences). 42:19 Advice to matured workforce when working with (relatively) younger managers. Trivia Question - Guess the age of the senior hire Everlyn had in her team … Answer - at 43:13! Everlyn closed with a quotable quote for employers 1:05:29 "If you never see them through that filter, they will never feel like they are different" Jobseekers, look for hiring managers who thinks, empathize and walk-the-talk like Everlyn!!
