Overview
An AARP Work and Jobs Expert provides a road map to success for older workers navigating a post-pandemic workplace When the coronavirus pandemic upended the US economy, many older workers lost their jobs and saw their retirement accounts take a hit. Those who remain employed are grappling with a new way of working: remotely from home, sometimes in isolation, facing daunting technological and social challenges. If you’re over 50, this must-have career guide will not only show you how to navigate this new normal, it will empower you to take control of your professional and economic future—with hope, confidence, and optimism. In this book, Kerry Hannon—a leading authority and strategist who has spent three decades covering all aspects of business, careers, personal finance, and retirement—offers advice, guidance, and concrete action steps that will enable older workers to succeed in the workplace and prepare for a financially secure retirement. It features inspiring case studies of how workers over 50 have successfully pivoted and thrived. It identifies the jobs that will be in demand in the post-pandemic economy, as well as leading companies providing new opportunities for older workers in a variety of fields. An essential resource for full-time employees, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and small-business owners alike, In Control at 50+ will show you the way to a brighter professional and financial future.
