We all hear about "Early Career issues, but who talks about Late Career?" This compelling panel, representing late career IRs from all practice situations will talk about how they evolved the latter half of their IR careers, decisions they made, advice and lessons, retrospective wisdom, etc..to all of us who are (or eventually will) reach our Late IR careers.

Learning Objectives:

To discuss the challenges of lessening the intensity of a 100% IR career in one's late stage
To discuss issues of fitness, and ability as we become older IRs
To understand how to recognize when 'enough is enough' and adjust one's practice
