Retired Business People Advise the Next Generation with SCORE
We all have someone in our lives who just can’t seem to step away from their computer, Blackberry or office. For these people, work is always one of the top priorities that give them a sense of self-worth and accomplishment; and it certainly pays off! But what happens when these people retire and they no longer have the responsibilities to get them out of bed everyday? After leading busy, successful lives it can be hard to sit still in retirement and live the quiet life; for these people, that life can be as bad as death itself. But instead of admitting defeat, retired professionals can give back to the business community by volunteering their time with the non-profit organization SCORE, which recruits successful, retired professionals to mentor up and coming entrepreneurs in the business world.
By working with SCORE, seniors can share their wealth of knowledge and experience with other Rhode Island small business owners and entrepreneurs, and still feel like they’ve got their thumb on the pulse of business and responsibility. Volunteering with an organization like SCORE can give once professional successful seniors a reason to get out of bed each day, while knowing that they’ve still got it!
