Premier Companies

I have white hair in my beard… just a bit peppered down my jaw to my chin.

There was a time, not all that long ago when those white hairs were not there.  I have witnessed the change, and I welcome it because of the added nuance it brings to an already nervous bundle of roguishly handsome features

The Bottom Line Issue | I welcome the change…I like the way it looks and what it means.

If you are the Gray Haired Business Person you should be proud because:

Gray Hair Is A Mark Of Experience

Your Experience Is Your Badge | You have lived, worked, invested and sacrificed your time and resources. If you were stripped of all material possessions you would still be the sum total of your experience. Your badge says a lot about you: Who you are, What you do, Why it matters.

Your Experience Is Your Shield | Well, hopefully. The worst decision makers are usually bad historians. Frivolity aside, if you have lived long enough to have been marked by gray hair then it seems likely that you have learned something from experience.  Something that has kept you from harm, or helped you adapt to a new environment quickly.

Let Us Not Forget That The Ability To Adapt Is Important

When new technology was introduced you adopted that new technology and made it work for you.  You understand the importance of formulating a plan to use new technology regardless of the form that technology takes.  Once upon a time having a web-site qualified you as being on the cutting edge.

Once Upon A Time I Thought I Was On The Cutting Edge Because I Have A LinkedIn Account.  Back then I was sure that all those other Social Media Networks were just a drain on people’s productivity.

I have changed…I have adapted.

I drew on lessons learned from life experience.

I may not see the Gray in my hair today, but I believe in upholding the best traditions of the Gray Haired Business People that mentor me…by learning…adapting…& thriving in a new environment.
