[quote=Anonymous]I’m the one that brought up ageism. In 20 years working in the field of Computer Science, I have never felt age is a factor in one’s ability to accept change or to think logically. Those are personality traits. People who believe themselves tech savvy only because they are users of a variety of products don’t take the time to understand the underlying building blocks of technology or data analysis. I’d take a 60-year-old product owner with an understanding of business process and an open mind any day over an arrogant 20-something with no skills in logic or teamwork. Or vice versa….ageism shouldn’t be against younger people either. There is simply a way you think or a way you don’t think, and the ability is what matters. You can teach someone how to use tableau. You can not necessarily teach them how to build an effective system if they are unwilling to understand that the technology is secondary, not primary, to what drives an organization. [/quote]
