We're surrounded by examples of women working well past the traditional retirement age. In fact, the fastest-growing segment of the workforce is women aged sixty-five and older. In today's challenging economy, men over the traditional retirement age are the second-fastest growing group of workers (just behind older women).
In this episode, we'll explore:

• Why older women and men are staying on the job past conventional retirement age
• What's driving this trend; gender differences
• Working late by choice or necessity; advantages and disadvantages
• Traditional role models, expectations; loss of identity
• What does "older" mean; age stereotyping
• Giving back--mentoring, volunteering
