What GeroBiz Offers

GeroBiz Consulting helps to reduce – and through education and training, to remove – Age Bias, a common bias that remains a serious threat.

There are those who believe negative stories about growing older. Generalizations about poor health, using one’s age as a privilege, and ignoring the qualities that bind all generations, are too common. They do harm to everyone — in our workplaces, our communities, and our relationships.

You can resist damage to intergenerational cooperation by learning the facts about Age Bias and Age Discrimination.

Consulting Services

GeroBiz Consulting is dedicated to eliminating Age Bias in Employment, Media, and Society.

We offer the following solutions:

  • Comprehensive Age Assessments.
  • Evaluation of corporate marketing communications and social media.
  • Custom corporate training programs for business leaders and stakeholders.
  • “Best practices” that break down the invisible barriers to intergenerational cooperation.
  • Predicting the risk of legal action.

Remember: Age Bias Awareness should be included in your DE&I programs.

Attention Employers: Are these Age-Positive/Age-Neutral issues on your radar?

  • How do you promote successful aging during an employee’s tenure? Are your HR Staff Leaders communicating with long term Employees who may require skills updating, but are afraid to ask? Do new hires get the mentoring that they need to succeed?
  • Are training programs and policies in place to ensure that there is understanding of Age Bias? Do Executives attend these training sessions?
  • What do your Employee Benefits tell Employees about your care for their well-being? Do you provide Reasonable Accommodations to help them return to work following an illness or extended absence?
  • Do you offer “longevity bonuses” to encourage Employees to stay with your company for a year, two years, or more?
