If you are a young professional and feel like no one takes you seriously, there may be a bizarre reason why. In this brutally honest interview, veteran CEO Glenn Akramoff reveals the unspoken rule of business: society often doesnt respect you until you turn 35 . He shares the story of how his own son, who works in his company, noticed an almost overnight shift in how people treated him after his 35th birthday. This is a deep dive into the complex dynamics of age, respect, and authority in a family business, including the story of when he accidentally texted his son that he wanted to fire him.
