What's Next? de D. Roche-Tarry

What's Next?

Autor D. Roche-Tarry, D. Roche-Lebrec
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 oct 2011

Observăm că generația Baby Boomer redefinește complet conceptul de final de carieră, refuzând să se retragă de pe scena profesională la vârsta standard de pensionare. What's Next? abordează frontal această realitate, investigând pașii concreți făcuți de profesioniști care aleg să navigheze dintr-o traiectorie liniară spre o etapă „plurală” de activitate. Merită menționat că autorii D. Roche-Tarry și D. Roche-Lebrec nu propun doar o reflecție teoretică, ci oferă un instrumentar pentru cei care doresc să rămână relevanți și implicați. Structura volumului este riguros organizată în două părți esențiale. Prima parte, „The Disappearing Point On The Horizon”, se concentrează pe reaprinderea pasiunii și pregătirea psihologică pentru o carieră de tip „encore”. A doua parte, „Multiple Questions, Multiple Choices”, explorează opțiunile practice: de la implicarea în fundații și mentorat, până la continuarea în afacerile de familie sau explorarea unor noi conexiuni în business-ul de resurse umane. Dacă Thriving in Retirement de Anne C. Coon Ph.D. v-a oferit cadrul teoretic și profiluri demografice, această carte oferă instrumentele practice și un „Road Map” aplicabil pentru a transforma incertitudinea în strategie. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care autorii folosesc interviurile cu lideri de succes pentru a ilustra faptul că viitorul profesional nu mai este o destinație fixă, ci o serie de conexiuni și noi începuturi. Această lucrare, publicată de Palgrave Macmillan UK, funcționează ca un ghid de management al propriei vieți, fiind esențială pentru cei care consideră că vârsta de 60 de ani este doar începutul unui nou capitol de influență și productivitate.
