The author considers societal and managerial challenges posted by an aging population. It mentions the aging population is motivating changes in how people are managed and will challenge social norms of equity and fairness. It comments many countries are examining the age at which people can utilize employer- and government-supported retirement funds as extended life expectancy means in theory older people can work longer, and considers the consequences of increasing the official retirement age.
