[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a CPA, in shape, lots of energy. But every time I read one of these stories about somebody with multiple Ivy degrees over 50 and out of work I panic.[/quote]Me too. I've been somewhat stuck in my job (where I had limited opportunity to expand and move up) for too many years because kid was going through a very difficult time and it seemed best to stay at a secure, family friendly place. But now that I can move, I'm a bit afraid to try something new. I'm in my 50s and I should already be a manager now. Is anyone going to take me seriously? [/quote] Beint technically adept does not equal being management material, the most common mistake I see is promoting technically good people into management positions they aren't cut out for. They're different jobs.[/quote]
