Nice to meet you.
I’m Gordon Callum, the founder of RetiringPoint and ChangingPoint.
After nearly 20 years successfully leading the growth of ChangingPoint - which specialises in delivering behaviour and culture change at individual, team, and organisational levels across the UK, Europe, North America, and Africa—I realised early on during the Covid-19 lockdown that I needed to start preparing more seriously for my own next major life change: Retirement.
While I had been planning for many years on the financial aspects of retirement with my financial adviser, what struck me, when the pause button was pressed on normal day-to-day life, was how little thought I had given to the non-financial aspects of my approaching retirement.
Questions I faced & you are probably facing as well:
What was I really wanting to do with all the additional free time?
Would I be happy being completely free from work, or would I miss the mental stimulation and camaraderie I had enjoyed?
How might the relationship with my wife change when I’m at home with her more than ever before? Would this be a positive change, or could it create a strained dynamic?
During the initial weeks of the lockdown, I began searching for online non-financial retirement readiness programmes to help me think through and create my own retirement plan. To my surprise, I discovered that there was very little available.
This realisation led me to create RetiringPoint’s retirement readiness programme.
RetiringPoint’s programme focuses on the variety of non-financial and emotional aspects of retirement preparation and planning to help design then live your ideal, uniquely personal retirement, rich in meaning not just money.
