IOB is delighted to be joined by Dr. Catherine Elliott O’Dare on the topic of ageism and intergenerational workplaces. With people living longer lives and choosing to work past a traditional retirement age, workforces are now a combination of employees from several generations. How do we avoid intergenerational stereotypes and embrace the age diversity in the workforce? Dr. Elliot O’Date will also discuss the topic of ageism in the workplace and the steps we can take to tackle it.

There is 0.5 CPD hours for the following designations:

  • Professional Banker

  • Chartered Banker

  • LCI

  • CECA
