This workshop training is tailored towards all employees approaching retirement shortly, or in a few years’ time; they will confront real economic issues after their years of employment in their respective organizations. The course shows that retiring from corporate employment needs not become a calamity. It also introduces participants to post-retirement Entrepreneurship, as they are taken through an orientation of “entrepreneurial personality” which, rather than being characterized by a propensity for risk taking, will among other things focus on one thing – “opportunities maximization.”  

Delegates will learn a number of entrepreneurial logics and be made to dig deep into ideas - underlying a product or service they could think of venturing into, prepare such ideas, getting started, and keeping it going with commitment.

Learning Outcomes

The workshop will also give the participants ways to:

  • Identify their talents and personal capabilities that they can utilize elsewhere
  • Restructure their lives
  • Implement a successful financial life plan
  • Invest wisely 
  • If desired, start and run own business and become successful entrepreneurs
  • Where needed, get new satisfying employment.

Who Should Attend

  • We recommend that employees attend this workshop programme at least three years prior to retirement. By so doing, they are afforded the luxury of time to do everything necessary in good time.
  • It’s essential that female employees or the partners of male employees attend before their  pension age even if they intend to work past this age.
  • If they don’t, they risk losing lots of money to  pension by failing to have paid sufficient national insurance contributions.
  • We do urge employers to allow partners, other family members or a friend to accompany the retiree. This is because retirement will affect all those they interact with. Whether family or friends, our pre-retirement workshop course has various topics that will interest everyone.
