A European Network to Leverage the Multi-Age Workforce

Assoc. Prof. Justin Marcus from the Department of Business Administration is the Main Proposer of a newly approved EU COST Action network entitled “LeverAge”. LeverAge is the first Action network, and the largest worldwide, focused on psychological and management aspects of work and aging science, including 24 EU COST and 8 International Partner Member countries across five continents. The Action will build a pan-European and global network of scientists and practitioners that will expand and implement the knowledge on work and organizational practices for an age-diverse workforce, successful aging at work for workers of different demographics, knowledge transfer between generations, the integration of age-diverse workers at work, aging and technology at work, and late-careers and retirement. It is the first EU COST Action with Koç University as the Main Proposer and the first EU COST Action in all of the Social Sciences and Humanities with Türkiye as the Main Proposer. The Action proposal received the highest evaluation from the COST Committee of Senior Officials, a perfect 50/50 score. Wholehearted congratulations to Assoc. Prof. Justin Marcus for this outstanding accomplishment and best wishes for his continued success.
