Some of the most listened to episodes of Career Switch Podcast are those that feature guests who’ve switched industries or professions after age 50. So, I decided to dedicate an entire episode to making a career change when you’re over 50.
I speak with Penny Kastaris, executive coach and senior consultant with Right Management Talent Solutions, a company that offers career transition services.
Penny is a young Boomer, who helps over-50 clients with their career change, whether they know what they want to pursue next or are lost.
In this episode, Penny addresses the most frequent concerns she hears from her clients and offers her best advice for making an over-50 career switch.
