To older employees who felt disrespected, targeted, and sidelined over the last few years, just remember you are worth more than you know. In the words of Sully Sullenberger (Miracle on the Hudson) who saves 155 lives:
“One way of looking at this might be that for 42 years, I’ve been making small, regular deposits in this bank of experience, education, and training. And on January 15, 2009, the balance was sufficient so that I could make a very large withdrawal.”
One day your experience will be needed where and when it really counts. Don’t be afraid and don’t let others diminish you.
