This Week's Topic: "Don't Throw The Baby Boomer Out With The Bathwater!"
The workforce is changing; actually, it's getting a little older! Is this a problem or an opportunity? Tonight we explore the pros and cons of hiring more "mature" employees and what this means to your business. Our guest is Brad Taft, Co-Founder, Ageless in America, and Co-Author, "Boom or Bust! New Career Strategies In A New America."

"How I Did It" with Guest Entrepreneur
Alright, so we did it again; we decided to interview a second topic guest instead of an entrepreneur for the "Guest Entrepreneur" segment. Fear not, this was just too good to pass up!

Tonight's guest is Suzann Trevisan, Director of Organizational Development, Borders. The average age of a book buyer is 45 so guess who Borders is hiring to work in the stores? Borders profits from less turnover and lower training costs; could this strategy work for your business?
