A Study of Working in an Aging World

Continuing from the theme of Life and Work Issues in an Aging World from the 2003 conference in Puerto Rico, we are honoured to have experts speak with us about their work in the study of trends, attitudes, policies and principles for careers in an aging world.

Presentations from our panellists we will follow with moderated group work. Then the panel will offer feedback to help us form conclusions for our professional work focusing on:

 Innovations for older workers across cultures
 Changing our vision of aging- exploring the new value of contributions to society on the part of older workers
 Redefining retirement as world demographics suggest a longevity revolution where working longer in different ways will be the norm

Change Rangers Web Journal Goes Live!

Welcome to the Change Rangers new site, a web journal for those deeply
interested in career longevity issues.

Let our conversation start by asking us to revisit what the word career means. Just for fun, if you go back in the Oxford dictionary to read earlier word origins and meanings of the word , you can see how the evolution has brought us to where we are now.

Get the Theme Park Headline up above!

And if we let ourselves journey in time to the year 2034 and read an Oxford word version for career, perhaps it may well read:

A personal life and work legacy of achievements
that made it through the polluted world
of resumes and job boards on the Internet.

How do you want to design your career legacy? Come inside the Change Rangers web journal and ponder the possibilities.

Thanks to Phillip Smith of Community Bandwidth and Jarret Hardie of Development by Design for pulling this together. Two creative guys who know how to put form to conversation on the web.
