What challenges do ambitious older women face?

Older women are more and more visible in the workplace. But what challenges do women in their 40s, 50s and 60s face? Whether returning from a career break, or looking for a change of direction, we examine how older women can plot their way up the career ladder. Jenni Murray talks to Ann Francke, CEO of the Chartered Management Institute, and Professor Wendy Loretto, Dean of the Business School at the University of Edinburgh.
