How can you get the work done and still give those who’ve earned it the freedom of retirement? There are ways. Many unique, workable ways.
To keep critical expertise, explore this new frontier. Formal programs might result eventually, but for now, problem solving on a case-by-case basis makes the most sense. What is truly essential to THIS job? What is critical to retain of THIS employee’s capabilities? That knowledge can lead to dynamic new solutions.
Retiring TalentIt’s still a quest for excellence. But now the quest must also be for flexibility. Retiring talent can remain available with accurate needs analysis, win-win negotiating, and effective communication. |
ANALYZE NEEDS
Defining the highest priorities and critical needs of both the retiree and the company has to come first. This is a matter of effective problem solving. We can help. Mary Lloyd has solid experience in corporate problem solving and can put your managers through an effective process to clarify and focus on what needs to be retained.
Using Bold Retirement: Mining Your Own Silver to Create a Rich Life as the framework, she can create a customized retirement planning program for your key employees who are approaching retirement. The Company benefits when they develop a comprehensive understanding of the life and lifestyle they want in their “silver years.” They might be interested in an innovative arrangement to continue to provide their expertise. Even if they aren’t, they will be healthier and happier. That’s a boon if the company is covering health care costs, but to society as a whole in every case.
NEGOTIATE A SOLUTION
Then work through how to meet both sets of needs. If you need it, we can also facilitate problem solving sessions to develop innovative solutions that get the work done and give the employee the freedom to enjoy the rest of what’s personally important in a uniquely shaped work arrangement.
EXPERIMENT

You’ve invested years in helping them learn to get the job done well. Why assume it needs to walk out the door upon “retirement”? Pick the situation that has to most promise and try something new.
