The aged population have extensive knowledge and expertise while the young population tend to enthusiastic, creative and always update new knowledge, methodology, which both bring value for the stable development of companies or organizations. In my opinion, criteria of choosing leader should be based on capacity and vision instead of age.

On the one hand, it probably true that seniors always have massive experience which is accumulated for a long time, is one of key factors helping leading a group or a company as well. This arguments could be true to some extents.

Under no circumstances, should choosing people for the important position base on criteria os age.
