x, 292 p. : 24 cm, \"\"70, the new 50\" is about retirement management an answer to the challenge of the impending baby boomer exodus from the workplace. For years, organizations have been concerned about succession management and retention management, but few have tried to encourage select retirement-age employees to stay longer.
