Definitely smells like survivorship bias.

The title is clickbait. This reads more like marketing copy for the author’s consulting firm than any serious research.

They “help forward-thinking leaders and organisations see aging not as decline, but as a driver of innovation, resilience, and growth.”

ugh that they have to phrase it in such a way already makes me nauseous.

why start with the 'not as a decline, but as'. its such a stupid way to put it.

i cant beleive marketing ppl still dont realize that you dont sell something by say 'oh its not actually a turd its delicious'. JUST SAY ITS DELICIOUS. NO ONE WANTED TO KNOW WHAT IT WAS NOT.

you dont want to put a bad flavor in someones mouth and then try to wash it out. even LLM get this basic shit wrong lmao.

sorry a bit unrelated but considering the specific topic this tagline is suppose to address its really triggering.
