Baby Boomers’ next careers: Leading Non-profits [Small Business Boomers]

Translate Into:

 If you are considering a career change in “retirement,”consider working for a non-profit.  It’s rewarding (although not high-paying), and isn’t it about time you gave back?

The non-profits, like other businesses, are facing a “crisis of leadership” as baby boomers retire.  An article in OnPhilanthropy says 65% of non-profits anticipate a leadership change by 2009.  The article notes that many baby boomers are “disinclined” to retire completely (I would agree with that statement).  Maybe this is the time to consider a different type of job,with a non-profit group where you can make a difference.

For more information about non-profits, check out b5media’s 501(c)files blog, where  Tom Durso writes all kinds of interesting stuff.
