Thrive After50
On June 25, 2024, Wize Move Society welcomed experts and participants to the Global Round Table with the intention of discussing how to positively change the situation of those over 50 in the workplace so they can thrive. We believe that thriving after 50 can inspire positive change, growth, and inclusivity for individuals, in the workplace, and in society at large.
Together, we painted a picture of the current situation of those over 50 in the workplace. We specifically discussed the opportunities of a multigenerational workspace and the choice of entrepreneurship later in life.
At the end, we brought it all together and focused on the future; no idea was too crazy in a brainstorm about the opportunities to contribute to a future workplace where those over 50 will thrive.
In four rounds, speakers shared stories, facts, and inspiration. Every round, speakers and participants moved into conversations at different round tables (breakout rooms) under the leadership of a Round Table Leader who had three questions ready to initiate the conversation. Each round, the participants were assigned to a different Round Table. All participants were invited to speak up and use their voices.
In total, around 50 participants from around the globe joined Wize Move Society online during this five-hour event.
This document gives you an overview of the content shared by the speakers and shows how we, as Wize Move Society, think we should ACT in the future to let those over 50 thrive in the workplace or as entrepreneurs later in life.
