Abstract
When you reach a certain age, ‘retirement’ moves from being a quasi-theoretical concept, and becomes a cruel fact of life. It is not uncommon for people reaching this age to reflect on their career – even if it’s only to relive past glories and stave off the inevitable. Rich is now at that stage in his life, and he would like to share some of his reflections with you. In an effort to make it more interesting to this audience, however, and to provide a little extra challenge, Rich will try to frame his career as a major project he has (mis)managed over the years by presenting his reflections in the form of a post-project review. He hopes that some of the mistakes he’s made over the years will provide useful lessons to at least a few of the members of his audience – particularly those that are still early in their career.
 
Learning Objective
Participants will gain
Insights into how to manage their career
