Anyone who began working 20 or 30 years ago has witnessed astonishing changes in the workplace during their career. When the global pandemic hit, older workers fortunate enough to retain their jobs once again had to navigate enormous upheaval, virtually overnight. Working from home, often in isolation, over-fifties found themselves facing daunting technological and social challenges.

Kerry Hannon, a workplace futurist and renowned expert on business, careers, and personal finance, combines all her insights and skills to help you actively shape your work future into what you want it to be.

•Develop a positive mindset about your career and financial future
•Create a powerful résumé and a great online presence
•Master the virtual interview process
•Strategically manage remote work to benefit your career
•Make a successful career transition to something more exciting and rewarding
In Control at 50+ also provides winning advice specifically tailored for women, many of whose careers were uniquely affected by COVID-19.
