This case is about increasing age diversity in the workplace which is the average age of the workforce has continually increased as medical science continues to enhance longevity and vitality fastest growing segment of the workplace is individual over the age of 55. Recent medical research is exploding techniques that could extend human life to 100 years or more. Unfortunately, an older worker faces a variety of discriminatory attitude in the work place. Organizations can take steps to limit age discrimination and ensure that employees are treated fairly regardless of age. Many of the techniques to limit age discrimination come down to fundamentally sound management practices relevant for all employees.

More Than a Good Story
1. Jake and Rocket a cartoon guy and his cartoon dog, can be found on most of the apparel and other branded products sold by the Life is Good Company. With his perky beret (or other appropriate head gear), Jake has that contended look of being able to enjoy life as it is and finding reasons to be happy right now, and Rocket? Well he is just happy to be along for the ride. And what a ride it’s been for the two! They’ve been part of the company growth to over $100 million in revenues. Company co-founders and brothers, Bert and John Jacobs have a personal and Business philosophy much like Jake; simplicity, humor and humility. However both understand that even this philosophy they need to be good managers throughout the organization in order to stay successful.
2. Bert and John designed their first tee shirts in 1989 and sold them door-to-door in college dorms along the East Coast and in Boston where they’d set up shop using an old card table in locations on one way streets so they could pick up and move quickly if they needed to. They used this simple approach because like many young entrepreneurs, they couldn’t afford required business licenses. Although they met a lot of wonderful people and heard a lot of good stories during those early years, sales weren’t that great. As the company legend goes, the brothers “lived on peanut butter and jelly, slept in their beat-up van, and showered when they could.” During one of their sales trip parties, Bert and John asked some friends for advice on an assortment of images and slogans they had put together. Those friends (some of whom now work for the company) liked the “Life is Good” slogan and drawing of Jake that had been sketched by the John. So Bert and John printed up to 48 Jake shits for a local street fair in Cambridge, Massachusetts. By noon 48 shirts were gone, something that had never happened! The brothers were smart enough to recognize that they might be on to something. And, as the old saying goes…..the rest is history! Since that momentous day in 1994, they’ve sold nearly 20 million Life is Good shirts featuring Jake and Rocket. Bert attributes their success to his belief that the “ the ‘Life is Good’ message, coupled with the carefree image of Jake,
was simple enough to swallow, light enough to be mistaken for preachy, and profound enough to matter.” He goes on to say that, “Note that we don’t say ‘Life is great!’ We say life is
good, period. These simple words, People connect with it instantly.”
3. Another important facet of Life is good is their commitment to good causes. And those aren’t just “words” to Bert and John; they act on their words. They are passionately involved with Project Joy, which is a nonprofit organization that fosters the development of at risk children through the art of play. Bert says their partnership with Project Joy aligns with Life is good’s philosophy. The financial

Outlines the challenges and opportunities for employers with an age diverse workforce. Explores a strategic approach and shares tools and tips that support employers to build engaged and sustainable workforces.
At the Middle Tennessee SHRM luncheon on April 23, 2009, we discussed Managing an Aging Workforce. The attached PowerPoint Presentation highlights the key points of our discussion from a legal and human resources prospective.
Age diverse work groups are more productive!Joe Slade
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), age-diverse teams demonstrate both deep business experience and a network of friends and colleagues built over 3-5 decades. They also found that workers over 55 are more loyal. In 2016, workers above the age of 55 had a median tenure of more than ten years with an employer vs. 2.8 years for Millennials. We’re not knocking Millennials, just making sure you are aware of why skill sets are not always the answer.
When recruited and managed purposefully, multi-generational work forces are more productive and have less turnover than those in companies without age diversity.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

4. Summary
• This case is about increasing age diversity in the workplace
which is the average age of the workforce has continually
increased as medical science continues to enhance longevity
and vitality fastest growing segment of the workplace is
individual over the age of 55. Recent medical research is
exploding techniques that could extend human life to 100
years or more. Unfortunately, an older worker faces a variety
of discriminatory attitude in the work place. Organizations can
take steps to limit age discrimination and ensure that
employees are treated fairly regardless of age. Many of the
techniques to limit age discrimination come down to
fundamentally sound management practices relevant for all
employees. Such as set clear expectation for performance:
deal with problems directly, communicate with workers
frequently and follow clear policies and procedure
consistently.
5. Questions
1. What changes in employment relationships are likely to
occur as the population ages?
2. Do you think increasing age diversity will create new
challenges for managers? What types of challenges do
you expect will be most profound?
3. How can organizations cope with differences related to
age discrimination in the workplace?
4. What types of policies might lead to charges of age
discrimination, and how can they be changed to
eliminate these problems?
6. Age Diversity
•Age diversity is the ability to accept all
different types of ages within a
business environment. Companies
have to adjust to an aging population
in various ways.
7. Concerns Regarding the Aging
Workforce
• The Demographic Landscape
U.S. Census Bureau suggest that, by 2016, one-third
of the total U.S. workforce will be age 50 or older.
The growing number of older employees results in a
shift in workforce demographics.
A rise in the employment of older people results in a
decline of the entry-level workforce, leading to an
even larger shift in the demographics .
8. Concerns Regarding the Aging
Workforce
• Health Care and Increased Disability
Disability: 9.5 percent in the 18- to 24-year-old range, 21
percent in the 45- to 54-year-old range, 42 percent in the
65- to 75-year old range and 64 percent in the 75+ age
range.
Insurance: The health of the workforce not only affects
the effectiveness of the workforce but also impacts
insurance rates. With an aging workforce, healthcare and
life insurance premiums will increase due to an increased
risk of morbidity and mortality of the entire workforce.
9. Age Discrimination
• Positive Perceptions
experience
knowledge
work habits
attitudes
commitment to quality
even-temperedness
• Negative Perceptions
narrow-minded
unwillingness or inability to adapt to new technology
lack of ambition
resistance to change
presence of physical limitations
less willingness to relocate, travel or move to new job
locations
10. Engagement and Advancement
of Older Employees
• With the advances in medicine and healthcare, many older
employees find themselves very capable of continuing to
work just as effectively as their younger colleagues.
• Employers are faced with a unique challenge of retaining
and engaging older employees as well as creating career
advancement opportunities.
• 60 percent of older workers wanted to carry on working
after retirement age either in the same or different jobs
because of financial reasons.
• Society has changed its perspective of older people by its
use of new terms such as successful aging and resourceful
aging.
11. Benefits of an Aging Workforce
• The older employees can share many experiences both with
young and middle added employees to teach their knowledge
and expertise.
• Such diversity helps a company to service a wider range of
customers.
• By matching the employee age group to the customer’s age
group, the customer and employee relate better.
12. Employer Practices for the
Aging Workforce
• Work Force Assessment
Recruitment
Engagement
Retention
• Workforce Training and Engagement
• Workplace Flexibility
13. Question#1
What changes in employment relationships are
likely to occur as the population ages?
• Reduced hours and flexible schedules
• Phased retirement
• More training tailored towards older people
• As the workforce ages it is likely that companies will look
to other options such as outsourcing make jobs more
flexible.
14. Question#2
Do you think increasing age diversity will create
new challenges for managers? What types of
challenges do you expect will be most profound?
• Finding a way to balance motivation in the workplace.
This is because what motivates a younger person will not
necessarily motivate an older person.
• Managers will need to find a way to balance this when
dealing with age diversity.
• Problem of how to form a cohesive workplace by
bridging the gap between the older and younger
workers.
15. Question#3
How can organizations cope with differences
related to age discrimination in the workplace?
• By implementing strategies that place older people in
positions best suited to their ability without stereotyping
them.
• Organizations need to look for ways to make technology
more friendly to older people as this can enhance the
workplace experience for an older population.
• Ensure that the reward system is based on performance
and not tenure.
16. Question#4
What types of policies might lead to charges of
age discrimination, and how can they be changed
to eliminate these problems?
Types of policies might lead to charges of age
discrimination
• Not employing mature workers because it’s assumed
that they’ll soon retire.
• Not interviewing someone because they are too old to
‘fit in’ with other staff.
• Making choices during layoffs, or forcing someone to
retire, because of their age.
• Advertising for someone to join a “dynamic, young team”
17. Question#4
Policies can be changed to eliminate these problems
• Equal opportunity policy that helps staff understand their
rights and responsibilities.
• Pair workers of different ages .Workers of any age can pass on
their experience and help others develop through their
unique knowledge and skills.
• Fire an employee on the basis of his performance not on the
basis of his age.
18. Conclusion
Nine Signs of Age Discrimination
• Biased comments
• Comparisons
• Disparate discipline
• Promotions
• Favoritism
• Hiring younger employees
• Suddenly stupid
• Harassment
• But the boss is older
19. Conclusion
Ways To Avoid Age Discrimination
• Promotions and Raises
• Date of Birth
• Practice Fair Discipline
• Workforce Reductions
