    One way to avoid ageism: use experienced people outside their field of experience. Take veteran healthcare person & use them in manufacturing! One gets diversity without too much of "we did it this way before, which turns innovation into minor improvements". Experience is a bias https://twitter.com/DrCamRx/status/1097359733487357955 …

        Much more likely scenario: old person: "Yeah we tried that back in the '80s, and again in the '90s, here are the five things that went wrong." whippersnapper: [ignores old person, tries it anyway, exactly those five things go wrong] Experience is knowledge.

        Go Vinod. Love this. We get too fixated on experts and miss the breadth of some folks.

        I can't count how many times I've been disrespected by VCs because of age - most often by last minute substitution of a junior associate or by partner who can't put his f**king phone down.

        I find the people that work best are experienced people that are multi-dimensional or less (or no) experience but really deeply in one area

        Starting in a completely new sector implies a starter payscale. Would be difficult for an individual to come to terms with it.
