I'm going to take a contrarian view. Everywhere I've worked, the men in their mid 50s were the most knowledgeable, effective and valuable people. Sure as your 60s wear on your brain gets a little addled and it's downhill, but those 50-something guys are in the sweet spot because they've learned how to address every situation the right way, but they haven't lost their wits yet.
40-something is great too, but still not as seasoned as 50. 30-somethings are arrogant and reckless and have less experience than they think. 20-somethings are basically worthless and represent a sunk cost investment in the future of the enterprise.
