In this episode of Inclusion Unscripted, Margaret Spence will discuss DEI from the lens of diverse women over age 50. The new normal is building women's leadership development programs for new entrants and young professionals without having programs specifically designed for diverse women over age 50. The untapped and underappreciated talent pool. When women over 50 started in their career, there were no talent development programs - today, they're still forgotten from development discussions.

Critical points for today's episode: Picking the "All Women Category" While Checking The Woman Box Doesn't Make Your Company Diverse.

Fact: In the talent planning process, diverse women over Age 50 are forgotten and missing from the upward mobility discussion points.
