This year, the eldest among Boomers, those born in 1946, are turning 65 – the traditional retirement age. For various reasons including economic factors, some boomers are postponing retirement, some are continuing to work part-time, or re-inventing themselves into engaging occupations, enterprises or volunteering opportunities. Many pre-retirees are vaguely anxious about how they will redefine themselves and renew their purpose beyond their current workplace.
In early February, I am scheduled to lead retirement/re-engagement envisioning public seminars (What’s Next) through the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Toronto, Calgary and Edmonton. The details are available on the professional development catalogue of the websites of the Institute for the respective provinces.
