On this episode of Third Act, Liz talks with Stela Lupushor — The Work Reframer. Stela is a career HR professional who interestingly got her start in the field by implementing SAP HR because, as she says, “she was the girl on the project”. She parlayed those HR skills into bigger jobs across PwC, IBM, TIAA-Creff, and finally retiring from Fidelity in 2016.
But it was a NY Times article on the unemployment of women ages 50-65 that launched her into her third act. As an HR professional, she saw how the systems and processes were unintentionally designed to prevent these women from getting jobs. So she decided to do something about it.
Today, she is what she calls the Chief Reframer in several roles — first as the head of a nonprofit (Amazing Community) that helps women get back to work, second as a lecturer on this topic at NYU, and third as the head of her own consulting company that helps companies design age-friendly workplaces. Join Liz’s lively conversation with Stela as she offers great advice on how to work through ageism in the workplace, whether you are an employer or woman seeking work.
