In episode 196 of the Midlife Fulfilled podcast, I'm joined by Mark Daley in a 'Vulnerable Conversations' episode. Mark opens up about his journey to reinvent a legendary company culture in a new business venture after experiencing age discrimination in the job market despite his exemplary qualifications.
Here are three key discussion points from our conversation.
1️⃣ Reviving Rolm: During the Covid 19 lockdown Mark stumbled upon old emails and VHS tapes, reigniting his passion for the Silicon Valley 1980s legendary company Rolm. He bought the trademark and set his sights on resurrecting its legacy and values in a new business venture focusing on AI and cybersecurity, committed to providing exceptional customer experiences.
2️⃣ Overcoming Age Discrimination: Mark faced age discrimination in post-Covid job searches but refused to be discouraged. He is determined to pursue his business plan despite the initial instability and fluctuating income, driven by a strong belief in the principles and culture that once made Rolm great.
3️⃣ Family Support & Involvement: Amidst busy family events, including two upcoming marriages, his family has been a pillar of support. Their enthusiasm and involvement in creating company swag exemplify the importance of their role as he embarks on this exciting new venture.
This conversation is a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination that midlife can bring, as well as the importance of preserving the culture and values that shape a company and the people who once worked there. Mark is thrilled to be taking this journey and can't wait to get it off the ground. Let's cheer for his success and fulfillment in this midlife career chapter.
