Retirement Readiness
Retirement Readiness is Succession Planning!
Your company offers great benefits, but is pre-retirement planning on your list of options?
The Legacy Bowes Group/Career Partners International Retirement Options program for your older employees should be an essential component of your succession planning strategies. Helping employees plan their preretirement years while continuing to contribute to your organization will ensure you’ll never be caught off guard with a surprise exit and an unexpected loss of institutional knowledge.
When your employee is looking ahead to retirement and feels supported by their organization,they are much more likely to give advanced notice, sometimes years prior to their exit. Pre-retirement planning needs to be a key part of succession planning because these employees will then have time to share their knowledge and help in training and mentoring the new generation during their transition to retirement.
The Legacy Bowe/Career Partners International partnership believes that retirement planning is much more than financial. Retirement is all about personal change inclusive of emotional, health and psychological preparation!
Our program offers a social/emotional retirement assessment and an opportunity to work one-on-one with a certified coach to identify areas that need attention and to plan for a smooth and successful transition to retirement, their next stage of life.
Bill C-92 Support
Bill C-92, an Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Children, Youth, and Families, received royal assent and became law in Canada in 2019. The goal of this act is to keep Indigenous children and youth connected to their families, communities and culture.
Under Bill C-92, Indigenous communities and groups are free to develop policies and laws based on their particular histories, cultures, and circumstances; free to move at their own pace to implement and enforce these policies and laws. The Bill also enables Indigenous groups and communities to transition towards exercising partial or full jurisdiction over child and family services at a pace they choose.
How Legacy Bowes can help
Legacy Bowes has a long history in supporting capacity development in Indigenous communities and groups. Our approach is to first listen to the needs of the communities we are serving and respond to those requests. Our approach towards assisting with Bill C-92 is no different.
The Legacy Bowes team can assist Indigenous communities and groups transition towards exercising partial or full jurisdiction over child and family services in a number of ways. In addition to helping facilitate a free information session and sharing insights into how to access funding, we also can help with strategic planning and mapping your community's journey towards the transfer of jurisdiction.
