HOW on earth did I become an "older worker"? It was only a few years ago, it seems, that I set out to climb the ladder in my chosen field. That field happens to be journalism, but it shares many attributes with countless other workplaces. For instance, back when I was one of the youngest people in the room, I was helped by experienced elders who taught me the ropes.
Now, shockingly, I'm one of the elders. And I've watched my industry undergo significant change. That's why I recently went searching for a young mentor - yes, a younger colleague to mentor me.
Wait, isn't that backwards?
