In a world where the workforce is continually evolving, age can seem like an insurmountable barrier to career progression. I had eye-opening dialogues with two seasoned professionals within a span of just 48 hours. Each one believed that ageism was the invisible chain hindering their career advancement. However, upon closer examination of their resumes and LinkedIn profiles, the plot thickened. The true antagonist? Their career branding—or rather, the lack thereof.
Buried beneath lists of old job duties were the shimmering achievements that could have positioned them as invaluable assets. Their contact information? Nowhere to be found. LinkedIn profiles were rooted firmly in the past, casting a shadow over their current competencies and victories.
Do you find yourself at a crossroads in your career, attributing a halt in upward mobility to the passing of time? Allow me to pivot your perspective: Your age is not the barrier; it’s the untold stories of your professional life that form the barricade.
The key to pushing past perceived age barriers in your career is to weave a narrative that dazzles with authenticity, aligns with your aspirations, and radiates your expertise. Reinvent the way you present yourself professionally and watch as new opportunities unfold like a red carpet before you.
