Review\nIn a world in which we are all living longer, Changing Gear helps us to think deeply about how best to use this extra time. Jan and Jon draw on their immense experience to guide you through the transition from a full-on career to a rich and fulfilling life―Camilla Cavendish, author of Extra Time\nEver since I was young, I was amazed how bad people seemed at changing gear. Now I've driven into changing-gear land myself, I can only marvel at this book, which is full of practical wisdom. The gears can indeed be changed, without creaks and groans, but with a nice sweet glide―Sir Anthony Seldon, author of Beyond Happiness\nIn their new book, Changing Gear, Jan Hall, a former headhunter, and Jon Stokes, a psychologist, discuss the strategies that people can follow when approaching the "third stage" of life, after their childhood and their careers . . . This is a critical issue. Think of all the time people spend deciding which university they would like to attend, which course they would like to study and which career they would wish to follow. Deciding on their post-career lifestyle is just as important. They may have decades left to enjoy . . . [They] must work out who they have been, who they are now and who they would like to become. [Changing Gear] presents a series of case studies of people who have been through this kind of upheaval, some a lot more successfully than others . . . readers will discover that the individual stories are instructive and the questions posed by the authors are important.―The Economist\nHow to prepare for life after an intense career. In Changing Gear . . . authors Jan Hall and Jon Stokes set out how this next life - or "third age" - might be approached.―Financial Times\nAt a time of great inflection, many are asking big questions about "what next" in their careers and lives. Changing Gears offers a practical and powerful roadmap for the route ahead, drawing on rich case studies and the deep experience of the authors.―Henry Timms, Co-Founder of Giving Tuesday\n'Changes occur all the time.
