will explain why

"Age is your asset"

at Scotland House, Wednesday 10th May

Book here

We are delighted to be partnering again with Scotland House, Victoria Embankment, London for our next face-to-face networking on 10th May.

In addition to networking over complimentary drinks, we will be joined by Lucy Standing, Co-Founder of Brave Starts, a membership organisation focused on providing a pathway for the mature/experienced executive (ages 45 - 75) in business. Her presentation and the discussion that follows will be highly relevant to XTEND members.

"Age is your asset" - for too long, people have hidden their age instead of flouting it as the asset it is. By the end of this talk, you’ll leave armed with some of the insight and knowledge needed to demonstrate to others the importance of retaining, retraining or recruiting people of the 50+ generation.

Scotland House was established by the Scottish Government in 2017 to further facilitate business connections north and south of the border. Their lovely venue overlooking the River Thames is perfect for group meetings and presentations.

Lucy Standing is a co-founder of Brave Starts CIC – a non profit who see being over 50 as an asset. They’re building the blueprint for how people can figure out how to make this the best and most fulfilling time of their careers.
Lucy is a Chartered Psychologist, Associate Fellow with the British Psychological Society and Certified Principal Psychologist with the Association for Business Psychology (ABP) for which she was Vice Chair for nearly 10 years. Prior to her non-profit career, she worked in the strategy consulting and investment banking sectors as a Global Head of Recruitment.
