1.The pace of technology updates is accelerating.
Nowadays, technology is changing with each passing day, and all walks of life are developing rapidly. In the era of digitalization and intelligence, new technologies are emerging one after another, and it may be difficult for seniors to learn and adapt to these new technologies. Leaders want team members to keep up with the trend and master the latest tools and methods, so for those middle-aged men who are not aware of technological updates, leaders naturally have a certain sense of disgust.
2.Resistance to new things.
For many middle-aged men, they have been working in the unit for a long time and have accumulated a wealth of experience and knowledge. However, due to their resistance to new things, they may be conservative about new changes and unwilling to accept new ideas and concepts. However, leaders expect team members to be open and willing to try new solutions and methods, so this is one reason why leaders have an aversion to these middle-aged men.
3.The need for upskilling.
In today's competitive workplace, it's important to keep learning and improving your abilities. However, many middle-aged men may lack the motivation and time to study outside of work. Leaders, on the other hand, hope that each member can improve their professional abilities through study and further education, so it is understandable that there is resistance to middle-aged men who lack the spirit of active learning.
4.The pressure of high pay.
In many companies, middle managers tend to enjoy relatively high compensation packages. And some middle-aged men may already have a good salary and benefits, so they have higher requirements and expectations for their jobs. However, leaders may perceive these demands as too high and develop a sense of disgust at these middle-aged men.
To sum up, there is a reason why many leaders have a certain sense of disgust for middle-aged men over the age of 45. They expect team members to be able to adapt to new changes and technologies, to continuously learn and improve their abilities, and to remain positive and open-minded. And those middle-aged men who have not kept up with the pace of the times and are unwilling to change are difficult to be recognized and liked by the leadership. However, this does not mean that all middle-aged men are excluded, as long as they have the attitude to learn, adapt to change, and have the skills and mindset to keep up with the times, they can still succeed in the workplace.
Let's keep an open mind, continue to develop our capabilities, keep pace with the times, and meet the challenges of the future!
