Generation X, often called the **forgotten generation**, possesses a unique **adaptability**. Despite facing **layoffs** and **corporate downsizing**, their **labor market** experience gives them an edge. Companies need to recognize Gen X's value!
We went from typewriters to AI, cassette tapes to Spotify, fax machines to Zoom calls. No generation has navigated more technological change in a single career. Yet at 50+, we're told we're "overqualified" or "not a cultural fit."
In this video, I reveal why your adaptability is actually your secret weapon and give you 3 strategies to leverage it starting today.
What you'll discover: • Why Gen X's dual-world knowledge makes us irreplaceable translators • How to reframe "overqualified" as your competitive advantage • 3 concrete strategies to turn your experience into opportunity • Why companies need bridge-builders more than digital natives • How to target the right employers who value your unique skills • Why your network is your greatest asset in today's job market
This isn't about keeping up — it's about setting the pace.
