UM WK 6 Working with Older Adults & Attitude to Being Polite Discussion
I’m working on a writing discussion question and need support to help me study.
- Consider your own attitudes about old age and aging. How do you think they would translate to the workplace if you were (and if you are) working with older adults?
- What can the field of gerontology do to help encourage investment and interest in working with older adults?
- What competencies do you think are critical for working with older adults and why?
- What are some advantages of hiring older workers?
- How do organizations benefit from a mindset that values diversity and inclusion? How do Millennials differ from older generations in their views of diversity and inclusion?
