Episode 7
Not being taken seriously because of your age, and other nonsense
What is it like to be told your colleague won’t take seriously because you’re too young?
In this episode, I chat with HR veteran Ryan McShane. We start the conversation on the topic of age, discussing when Ryan was told he couldn’t possibly be taken seriously in his position because he was young and how he experienced that. But we don’t stop there, and explore several other incidents over his career, and explore why he believes that servant leadership is the best approach.
Check out Ryan’s article: To speak up is to be shipped out.
