As a professional life coach she has been asked every kind of question you could imagine about the uncertainties and problems facing people in later life. Whether the subject is sexuality, money, relationships, health, friends, planning for the future, you will be as impressed by the wisdom of the answers as by the variety of the questions. Like an extended problem page for baby boomers, this book will inform as it fascinates.
Recognise any of the following?
Q: I looked in the bathroom mirror this morning and an old woman stared back. When did this happen and how can I get rid of her?
Q: My husband spends so much time in front of the TV, I'm thinking of having him certified clinically dead. How can I make him notice me again?
Q: My mother's turned into a helpless child. My children have turned into my harshest critics. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. Help!
Over 50? Feeling unloved, invisible, worried and nowhere to turn for advice? Look no further! Coach, counsellor, internet and radio agony aunt Keren Smedley has the answers.

Packed with statistics and perspectives on the ageing workforce (in the UK, EU and countries around the world), the book includes practical advice, models, exercises and training activities to help establish an appropriate response for your organisation.
It is those organisations who can look beyond the legislation to manage the value in their older workforce that will thrive. Use this book:
- To understand the implications of demographic change and the employment law issues it raises.
- To help older employees identify, articulate and adapt to new ways of working.
- To enable both older and younger employees to work across the generations.
- To build an age-inclusive culture.
Covering virtually every human resources issue related to the ageing employment pool, this is a must-have resource for anyone involved in human resources, employment planning, organisational development and training.
