Often we are ill-prepared to make the life-changing transition from full-time employment, whether we leave by choice or not. Our professional work is an important part of our identity, and filling that void and making productive use of our time and skills can be a major challenge. Mike Mister and Rebecca Hill explore alternatives to the traditional "rules" of retirement in this practical guide for busy, mid to later-career professionals making the transition out of large organisational life. Using case studies and insights gleaned from their consulting work, Mister and Hill present a roadmap to reinvent retirement and build a rewarding 'encore' career. Having a purpose is key to professional and personal fulfillment, and the authors show you how to evaluate your options and make informed decisions when it comes to your encore.

Your encore can be the most exciting time of your life. From retraining in a new career path to making an impact by mentoring others or volunteering, a wealth of interesting possibilities awaits you!
