Coaching Your Employees On Finishing Strong as They Retire by Robin Ryan, Bestselling Author of Retirement Reinvention
B
aby boomers are beginning to retire in large numbers. AARP says that 10,000 people are retiring from work daily. Most companies have no formal program to aid these employees in this final transition. Although we often have extensive onboarding programs, little to nothing is done when an employee is ending their career except a goodbye party. Upcoming retirement for many people means coasting until the day they are done. Dave was a senior level manager and he announced his retirement one year in advance. Problem was that Dave then became retired on the job. He stop innovating. He stopped green lighting new ideas. He avoid conflict by ignoring problems. He no longer aggressively led his team. Dave had been very successful in his career but he ended so poorly that was how everyone remembered him. His team suffered a morale problem because they felt they were stuck until Dave left his position. That is a company problem. You want the retiring employee to end strong at your company. Instead of letting the employee coast and drain the company coffers, there are some key things HR can do to support the retiring person to end their career in the best way possible fully contributing up until the last day. Some key strategies include:
Establish a planningto-retire Educational program. HR should develop a
workshop helping their employees plan out their future especially how they will handle all the time they will have once they leave the company. The course can also cover financial planning too. The employee will be grateful for this assistance and also should learn various ways to end strong in their current role.
Coach the soon-to-be departed employee’s manager. Managers of de-
parting employees need help knowing how to support someone leaving their group. Having a formal coaching effort to reach out to the manager is necessary and it should offer prov-
22

en strategies to keep the employee engaged until their last day. The supervisor should try to get as many key projects competed and realize that it is their responsibility to not let the employee just coast and become retiredon-the-job.
Get them to document their knowledge. As many baby boomers walk
out the door, their depth of experience and knowledge departs with them. Companies should work with these employees and have them document their field and knowledge in a creation of a training manual or by adding knowledge pages to your organization’s Intranet so other employees can learn from these folks.
Train a new employee. Ideally, the
organization should make efforts to internally promote or hire a replacement and have the departing employee train the new person. Having a 2-3 week training period aids the company in helping the new employee come up to speed and be more productive in their new role faster.
Consider offering a bridge job.
Finding talented workers to replace departing baby boomers will continue to become harder in our tight labor market. Developing a transitional or bridge job where the employee remains on a part time basis with more flexibility and longer vacations may allow the company to retain good workers and avoid the quest for talent that is often not available. Baby Boomers want flexibility and less hours at the end of their career. In fact 72% say they plan to work in their retirement. When the company offers to reshape their current job it would allow the company and employee to remain together for a few more years so both benefit. Annette was an IT specialist who wanted to leave the Energy utility she worked for. The HR department was under the gun to deliver a new HRIS system and worked with her to remain on 3 days a week and granted her the ability to take more unpaid vacations. This new “bridge job” had her remain in her role for 18 months until the big project was completed. Final days may be a bittersweet time for employees to say goodbye to their co-workers, friends and the company itself. Having a supportive sendoff is a great policy to ensure everyone leaves on a positive note and will speak highly of your organization after their departure. Robin Ryan has appeared on over 2000 TV & radio shows including Oprah and Dr.Phil. She is the best-selling author of eight books including her newest “Retirement Reinvention”. She has a busy Seattle-area career counseling practice helping clients nationwide. Learn more at: www.MyRetirementReinvention.com © 2018 Robin Ryan all rights reserved.

A: Yes. The simple solution is to not use company phones for private phone calls because the phone system belongs to the company. Personal emails are also subject to monitoring for the same reason. Q: What causes people to feel jealous? I’m not talking about a jilted lover or anything which involves romantic love but like when someone or something makes other people feel jealous. A friend at work got promoted recently, and I think he deserved it, but I am just so jealous. I think that I would do a great job in that position, and I wonder why I wasn’t promoted! I don’t even want to be around him anymore. What can I do to feel better about his good luck? -Houston, Texas Reader
Q: I have been looking for a job, but I know that my resume is a problem. I have been fi red twice because of transportation troubles and I’ve never stayed very long at one job. One of my friends helped me fi x my resume by switching dates to look like I had been working at one place longer, and we took off the jobs where I was fi red since I was there for only about 3 weeks. Now I don’t know how to fi ll out those online application things. Should I use the real dates, or should I try to match my resume? -Houston, Texas Reader
A: Jealousy is a raw human emotion that we create when we feel insecure or anxious about our value to other people or to our company. We want to be treated respectfully. We would all like to be as rich and successful as people we know, and sometimes we don’t stop to realize that diff erent circumstances give us diff erent results. When jealousy occurs in the offi ce, it puts a strain on relationships and causes problems. You feel overlooked and resentful. I would go to my manager and ask what I could do to make sure that I am the next person promoted. What activities do you need to change and what extra things do you need to do? You should feel better about his luck when you take steps to do the best job possible and get yourself promoted through your own hard work.
A: Well that is a problem, isn’t it? First, don’t ever include a job that you held for such a short time. It wasn’t long enough to give you any real experience. Second, don’t lie on your resume!! (That kinda goes with “Don’t lie.”) It’s impossible to remember a lie when you get in a situation where you are nervous and interviews tend to make one nervous. Most companies will check your background before you start. The fi rst thing we check is your tenure: how long were you there? We’re probably going to believe that you falsifi ed information when they give us diff erent dates than you provided. You won’t get hired, and you will have damaged your reputation. I don’t see any gain for you in this!!
Q: My company says that it has the right to monitor any personal calls that we make from our offi ce phone. I think that’s an invasion of privacy. Do they have the power to do this?
-If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, I’d love to hear from you. Due to the volume of response, not every question will appear in the column, but most questions will receive an email response within 2 to 3 days.

Sometimes
on-the-job stress is temporary because of short-term circumstances, such as covering for vacationing coworkers or an impending deadline. These situations can be tolerable, if nothing else because you know they will soon go away. But when stress is part of the job description, as it often is when you deal directly with customers, it’s not quite as easy to handle. Since there are two types of stress involved here, you need to understand what you can do in each situation, because the remedy for each kind of stress is different
The Two Levels of Customer-Related Stress Customer service often involves problem solving, sometimes when you are face-to¬-face (or on the telephone) with upset customers. This is stressful not only because of the inherent conflict, but because as soon as you’re done there’s another customer waiting. Taken individually, there are ways to cope with each customer call or problem that can help diffuse the stress, both for yourself and the customer. But when you do this type of work all day long it’s easy to experience stress in a general sense, the kind that stays with you when you go home, that calls for other approaches to stress management.
Diffusing Stressful Customer Situations The key to dealing with stressful customer situations is to be prepared, both practically speaking and emotionally. This means that you should expect the types of situations that cause customers to be emotional and have solutions and responses ready. Another important aspect of dealing with this type of stress concerns your attitude. When you understand that the customer is upset, you can bring empathy to his or her point of view – no matter what they say to you – this will help you deal with the heat of the moment in a calmer way. Look at each situation as a chance to accomplish something, both for the customer and for yourself. Keep yourself emotionally detached, yet focused.
Notice tension in your body and concentrate on easing it. Find a way to laugh and stay positive.
Dealing with the Overall Stress of Customer Service No matter how well you deal with specific customer situations, doing it all day can take a toll. It’s healthy to find an outlet for your daily stress, such as exercise or a hobby that takes your mind off work. Try relaxing music, and make sure your diet is low on sugar, which can add to the effects of stress on your body. High protein snacks or high fiber vegetables are always better than candy. Avoid too much coffee; consider decaffeinated tea, which can help soothe away tensions at home and at work.
Ask Your EAP (Employee Assistance Program) Resource for Help Employers understand the stresses of your job and they care about helping you deal with those stresses. They can help you with ways to cope, both with specific job situations and with lifestyle tips that will help you relax when you are away from work. Don’t hesitate to ask for advice or assistance. Customer service stress has been well-studied, and resources exist to help you become a champ at working with every businesses’ most important focus—happy customers. This information is not intended to replace the medical advice of your doctor or health care provider. Please consult your health care provider or EAP for advice about a personal concern or medical condition. Employee Assistance Program—Occupational Medical Service—Division of Occupational Health & Safety—Office of Research Services—National Institutes of Health—Department of Health and Human Services
In extremely stressful situations, learn breathing and visualization techniques that will keep you relaxed. Picture a calm place that’s special to you. Close your eyes and breathe deeply.

HOW TO DEAL WITH
Workplace GOSSIPS By Sandy Dsouza
Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Sandy_Dsouza/1018786
Human beings are social animals and often give their opinions on various topics even if it is not asked. They tend to discuss at every possible chance and do not refrain from doing so even at their workplace. Gossips are a rampant part of any organization as there may be employees who get mostly involved in speculating other individuals. While healthy discussions can help a person grow in his/her career, spreading false rumors can affect the performance of an individual. It can also have a devastating effect on him/her as it takes a hit on the morale and productivity of the concerned person. Hence, one must refrain from being a part of chatters and even if had an idea about it, must act wisely and handle it properly. Here are ways that will help you manage workplace gossips effectively. Get to the root of the topic Conversation at the workplace is a common thing that happens in every organization. However, you must identify the type of discussion that is being carried out. While a friendly banter can bring about some light moments among the employees, gossip is started by the speaker just to seek attention and spread misconceptions that is aimed at undermining an individual’s potential.
Do not take things personally It often happens that the person who initiates rumors is exaggerating things just to show his/her superiority in the company. Even if it looks like a deliberate attempt to spread malicious nonsense you, how AUGUST 24, you 2018respond to the situation will 50about
matter the most. Instead of having a defensive approach, try to understand the reasons that caused these rumors and then deal with it objectively. Know the facts Instead of riding high on your emotions while addressing such issues, it is necessary that you get to know the real story behind the widespread tales. You can search for factual answers by interacting with the right people who will provide you with accurate answers. Examine the context While handling rumors at your workplace, you need to identify the type of rumors - whether it is related to any particular individual or is a workplace gossip. Although both must be treated in a fast and firm way, proper steps must be taken to prevent the morale of employees from plummeting. Address the rumors honestly At times of uncertainties at the workplace in to day’s world, rumors are bound to get more fueled and are propelled faster. If you have a high position in the organization, it is your duty to assess fears in your team and make them aware of the facts. It involves giving proper reassurance about things you know and taking steps to find reality about things you might not be aware about. Question the gossiper directly Mostly people gossip about others just because they enjoy doing it or have a sense of insecurity towards an individual. They use such atten-
tion-seeking tactics to make their importance felt in their group. You can help such employees by confronting them to speak about their real grievances or encourage them to tell about what is bothering them. Avoid getting involved Whether you are an employee, a team leader or aspire to occupy a higher position in the company, never participate in conversations that perpetuate rumors. Doing so, not only belittles your value but also creates a negative impression on the minds of others. Discourage spreading of rumors You should abide by the company policies and understand the types of discussions in your organization are termed as gossips. Make sure the employees understand what is viewed as a negative discussion and take appropriate measures to prevent it. Gossips can become a major reason of distraction at a workplace and even affect the company’s performance leading to financial loss. Thus, it becomes necessary to keep rumors in check and disallow propagation of false news among employees. The above listed methods can help you in dealing with gossips in your organization.

LARGER EMERGENCY FUND?
SECURED VS. UNSECURED DEBT?
Dear Dave,
Dear Dave,
My wife and I are following your plan, and we just paid off all our debt except for the house. Since we work for the same company, do you think we should have an emergency fund that is larger than you normally recommend?
What exactly is unsecured debt, and how is it different from secured debt? Rich Dear Rich,
Don
“Unsecured” debt generally means someone loaned you money, but they don’t have a lien on anything. Credit cards and student loans are examples of unsecured debt, because there’s nothing they can directly repossess if the borrower doesn’t pay. However, they can sue you if you don’t pay, and get a lien against something after they sue you. In some cases, this is done against your income by garnishing your wages.
Dear Don, That’s great news! You’ve finished Baby Step 2, and now you’re ready for Baby Step 3, which is fully-funding your emergency fund. I don’t see a reason to set aside more than six months of expenses. My recommended range for an emergency fund is three to six months of expenses. If your employment situation is one where there’s more risk of something going wrong, you should lean toward saving six months’ worth. If your employment outlook is really stable, you can go with setting aside three or four months of expenses in an emergency fund. I look at your situation as being more high-risk. You each have jobs, so that’s the good news. But if the company went down, or experienced layoffs, you could find yourselves unemployed at the same time. My advice would be to save up six months of expenses for your emergency fund. With that kind of cash just sitting there, you should be able to make an easier and less stressful transition in almost any kind of unemployment scenario or other emergency.
Some examples of “secured” debt would be things like a home mortgage or car loan. A home mortgage loan is secured by the home. If you don’t pay, they can foreclose and take the house. The same is true with a car loan. If you don’t make the payments, they can take the car. Typically, unsecured debts will be the last debts you pay if you’re in financial trouble. You’d make the car payment before paying on your student loan, and you’d make your house payment before paying on a credit card. Hope this helps, Rich! —Dave
