Change Rangers Presents at HAPPEN & EARN
Recent speaking engagements brought Change Rangers on the road with a new presentation on the subject "Re-working Retirement & Later Life Careers". Speaking at meetings for HAPPEN in Burlington on September 29 and this week in Toronto at EARN on October 20, Mark Venning addressed two groups of executives and business professionals in career transition.
The largely Boomer audience were encouraged to think about their later life career options with fresh ideas given that work life may be longer than expected for some, based on the need or desire to work in different ways well beyond the notion of retirement.
For over a decade, both HAPPEN (1991) and EARN (1990) have served thousands of executives and business professionals in Mississauga, Burlington and Toronto as self help networks and as a learning centre. Recent loss of funding by HRSDC has placed both these not for profit organizations in a position of repositioning their business model.
As in their early years, without the funding from the federal government, HAPPEN and EARN will once again learn to thrive on the energy, innovation and hard work of the leadership and volunteer members. Congratulations and may the force be with you!
