Baby Boomer's Recognition Day

How can I allow Baby Boomer's Recognition Day to pass without a notice? Baby Boomer retirements will soon take a toll on the knowledge bank in your workplace. Additionally, the transitioning of this generation into part time work, consulting, traveling, or retirement will create huge recruiting and retention issues in many workplaces. My recommendation? Use the skills of the Baby Boomers as long as you can. For ideas see:

• Becoming a Sage: The Keys to Life-long Self-development.
• Mentoring and Baby Boomers: Mentoring Is a Strategic Business Imperative.
• Creating a Mentoring Culture.

If you personally are a Baby Boomer looking at your next options, I empathize. I am on the same journey but fortunate to have work I love that transitions well into wherever I choose to go or whatever I choose to do. Maybe these resources will help you find options for your next journey.
