9-Week Course on Crafting the Next Stage of Your Work & Life (closed)
March 8, 2022 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm EST
Reimagine, Re-Energize and Reinvent: Crafting the Next Stage of Your Work and Life
This course is closed to selected participants only.
The Office for Senior Faculty Transitions has partnered with Russ Eisenstat, PhD and Stephanie Eisenstat, MD to offer this online program for mid to late career faculty.
Mid to late career for highly motivated individuals can be a time of stress and transition, but also a chance to reflect, reimagine, re-energize–and even potentially reinvent– work and life. Recent research in the fields of life span development and positive psychology highlights that the old paradigm and mindset of gradual decline into the retirement years is no longer accurate or helpful. Having the opportunity to systematically explore these issues as part of a supportive community, away from the pressures of the day, can help people feel greater agency, be more intentional in their decision making, and ultimately more professionally and personally fulfilled.
This limited enrollment course is an opportunity for those in mid to late career who are seeking to successfully navigate a work/life transition. Using a disciplined, evidenced base approach, course participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their personal journey and understand better their distinctive strengths. This work will provide a foundation for reimaging the path forward and proactively shaping a more meaningful and rewarding next chapter. We will also provide a wealth of practical tools and resources to support participants in making tangible progress, week by week, in realizing their aspirations for their work and life.
