One of my current business book projects is sort of a prequel to Generation Experience. In it I explore an 8 step method for mature individuals to handle a sudden change in their work or life status. Many people in their 40's and 50's are being made redundant or wanting change. Many want to continue working and many have to do so for financial security. But if you're over 50 in Australia, you'll find it more difficult that other age groups to get re-employment - the average time is over 2 years.
I'm interested in interviewing people who have had a change in status through redundancy or who are contemplating a change from employment to business ownership.
I've already interviewed some very interesting individuals to see how they coped with the time when their status suddenly went to zero. And that is the title of the book - Status Zero.
