Hi Friend

Hope you have had a great week. This week we take a rather personal look at aging and the impact of an aging generation on your workforce and business.

We start by looking at your "stuff" and what clues about your business your stuff gives potential employees and customers.

We then look at the impact of elder care on your employees and what you need to do to support them.

Our workshop of the week is one I wish my mum had taken last year.

THIS WEEK

What does your "stuff" say about you

People make snap judgments about you and your business based on your "stuff". If you take a hard detective like look at your stuff - what would you find? In this article I share some of my findings about my mother that I discovered by sorting through her stuff in preparation for her move to a nursing home and how this same sort of scrutiny happens to your business every day.

Blog Post of the Week: How the Aged Care Industry is Missing the Boat

In this post I share how an entire industry has missed the point of how baby boomers now conduct research, and end with a checklist that is applicable to almost every business to ensure their websites meet the information needs of their readers.

Have a great week!

exuberantly yours
