Authored by analyst Charlotte Thorne, the report entitled
"Experience Necessary - the business case for wisdom" notes
how dotcoms are increasingly turning to experienced business
professionals to take them through their higher stages of growth.
"What businesses are really after is wisdom and that puts older
workers in pole position," says Thorne, noting how changing
demographics and labor market trends are making the over 50s
"a force to be reckoned with."
Thorne divides the over 50s into several groups, to which she
has given some highly evocative names. At the top of the tree,
she says, are the Warhorses -- the grey-haired chieftains who

Among the other groups are the Trusted Guides -- people who
have become trusted by consumers in other media and who now
front Internet sites. TV antique collecting show host Hugh
Scully would probably fit into this category.
However, there are other groups such as the Networkers whose
ability to talk to partner companies, especially in Asia
where age is venerated, is essential to dotcoms with
worldwide ambitions.
Ronald Cohen of venture capitalist firm Apax Partners reports
that young entrepreneurs are asking for experienced people
because they realize they need them to get their businesses
to the stockmarket. Hence, the Strategist is another category
singled out in Thorne's report.
