The Myriad Series by The Good Bye Podcast | Episode 4 - Retirement

There is a myriad of endings every day in organisations.

In The Myriad Series, Alison and Lizzie explore one specific ending and the challenges and opportunities that come with it. Using their REAR model—Reality, Emotions, Accomplishment and Ritual— they also offer some practical ways to help leaders end and begin well.

This episode focuses on retirement, an ending loaded with personal significance, challenge and opportunity.

The conversation includes:

  • Unhelpful language, including the word retirement

  • How to manage shifting identity

  • Structure and purpose before and after you retire

  • The importance of meaningful ritual and the ripple effect of that

  • A brighter future

This podcast was produced by John Cushing and Michael Weadock of Anything But Footy.
