About the Speaker
Jeri_Sedlar_-_21EwGO7CkeL._SX300_CR0_0_300_300_.jpg
Jeri Sedlar has been doing research on personal growth and transition for over 15 years. In 1999 she started hearing about people wanting to "work in retirement," and it has now become her passion! She has interviewed hundreds of business professionals, entrepreneurs and pre-retirees about their hopes, expectations and fears about the future. She has researched corporations and understands the implications and challenges of both organizations and individuals as they experience the realities of an aging society that is healthier, more educated and more vibrant than any other generation ever in history.

Co-author of Don't Retire, REWIRE! and Senior Advisor to The Conference Board on the Mature Workforce, Jeri travels the country inspiring individuals and organizations to "get creative" and rewire their thinking and action when it comes to planning for the future! Jeri attempts to update a traditional retirement model that dates back to the late 19th century. With today's global economy and aging workforce, her mission is to ensure that both individuals and organizations discover how to leverage the opportunities created by The New Retirement model. Jeri is also the former Editor-at- Large of WORKING WOMAN magazine, and for ten years was a partner in her own executive search firm.
