In episode 202 Simon Chan, founder and CEO of Adapt with Intent, covers a topic that is literally transforming global society: the longevity revolution. We explore how increasing lifespans are reshaping our lives, from the workforce to education and beyond. 

Here are three key takeaways from our conversation:

🔹 Embracing Longevity for Fulfillment: Simon emphasizes the need to view increasing longevity as an opportunity to live more fulfilling, purposeful lives. Just like technology and globalization, longevity is reshaping our society in profound ways—offering extended periods of health, learning, and productivity.

🔹 Intergenerational Workforce Synergy: The episode highlights the immense value of blending the wisdom and experience of older generations with the technical skills of younger ones. This collaboration not only fosters innovation but also enriches workplace dynamics, leading to better business outcomes.

🔹 Higher Education’s Role Beyond Early Adulthood: We also discuss the imperative for higher education institutions to adapt and support lifelong learning, particularly during midlife transitions. Universities need to develop inclusive programs that cater to the unique needs of older adults, thereby creating intergenerational learning environments and mitigating the trend in enrollment declines.
