Executives today have ever-increasing demands on their time and planning for their own retirement often takes alow priority. They no longer enjoy the luxury of winding down and find it difficult, with increasingly busy diaries, to justify days out of the office to attend a course. Yet retirement brings with it a loss of identity

and status; it is the biggest change likely to be faced, impacting on relationships and lifestyle.

 

Hitherto working lives have been structured to realise ambitions and progress careers along pre-ordained lines; a series of challenges and achievements. Today trends in longevity promise aslong in retirement as in employment. Faced with thirty years’ active life – too long for golf, gardening and that long-haul holiday – it is essential to review, establish and control what the retiree, single or with partner, wants from this potentially rewarding next phase.

 

Changes in legislation, demographics and the trend to work in retirement add yet another choice to this major lifestyle change.

 

Opportunity and Choice – a one-day seminar which focuses clearly on the important issues, addressing the particular needs of senior management whether single or with partners, gathering them into a comprehensive programme. This seminar takes place at the

Institute of Directors

Institute of Directors, Pall Mall, Westwood Park, a restored Jacobean mansion selected for its special ambience, Mayfair, London, and other prestigious locations.

Workshops – where the open seminar dates are not convenient, half-day workshops can be arranged at the IoD Pall Mall, Westwood Park, Essex or other appropriate venues. The comprehensive programme, while addressing the issues underlying change, is specifically developed around the particular concerns of the delegate or delegate couple.

The Alpine Experience – a unique opportunity to examine the issues of retirement in a chalet-hotel in the Haute Savoie near Lake Geneva. This two-day programme offers, in idyllic surroundings, an enhanced Opportunity and Choice seminar. Limited places are available as this programme is offered only in May.
