Employers, universities and community organizations need to adjust, study suggests

Baby Boomers have been bucking social convention and defining new market trends since the 1960s.

Now they鈥檙e reinventing retirement as well, a new study shows.

The study, based on in-depth interviews with 106 managers and executives from a variety of companies and industries across Canada, sheds light on how Baby Boom managers and corporate leaders are crafting their pathways out of firms and forging new models of retirement.

The research -- led by Prof. Mary Dean Lee at 缅北强奸 University鈥檚 Desautels Faculty of Management, with colleagues from 缅北强奸 and York University in Canada, and Queensland University and University of Melbourne in Australia 鈥� highlights the complexity of how managers are approaching the later stages of life.

鈥淓ven among those eager to maintain engagement in some kind of productive activity after formal retirement, there is a strong inclination toward activities that are relaxing and restorative and involve increased engagement with family,鈥� 听according to a preliminary report on the findings. 鈥淭here is considerable evidence that many managers are inspired to find new ways to contribute but on their own terms, whether through continued full employment or creating new pathways.鈥�

The study also points to a need for companies and other institutions to discard conventional expectations about how managers will end their careers and spend their retirement.

Employers, universities and community organizations 鈥渁re in a position to generate more options for late-career and retired managers,鈥� the preliminary report concludes. 听A more flexible and creative approach could harness the 鈥渋mpressive skills and experience this cohort of managers could bring to problem-solving of all kinds in many settings; and new venues could be created to facilitate more mentoring and nurturing of leaders of the next generation.鈥�

The preliminary report of the study鈥檚 findings is being distributed to participants in the study. A more technical report, as well as scholarly articles, are in progress.
