Starting Over After the End of a Career
This event is organized by the Department of Management
The end of a career marks a watershed in people’s lives. What happens when this part of life draws to a close? What happens when people turn the page on a chapter of their everyday life that took up so much time and formed a central part of their identity? Can there be a career after your career? How can people master the transition to a different, meaningful (professional) life? Former top athletes and family business entrepreneurs will share their stories about searching for and finding their new roles, letting go, starting over, and finding the courage to reinvent themselves.
Discussion:
Petra Kronberger, former professional athlete
Lukas Mähr, former professional athlete
Gerti Schatzdorfer, former Director of the family firm Schatzdorfer Gerätebau
Paul Senger-Weiss, former Director of the family firm Gebrüder Weiss
Moderated by:
Reinhard Prügl, Institute Head, Department of Management/Institute for Family Business, WU Vienna
Wolfgang Mayrhofer, Institute Head, Department of Management/Interdisciplinary Institute for Management and Organizational Behavior, WU Vienna
