I had a fairly long run-up to it because I knew I was going to jump long before they did (and then the restructure that I knew would give me the exit opportunity was delayed for several months by COVID). My strategy was always to keep giving it my best (at least in terms of engagement and output) so when I did leave they really didn't want me to. What I did do, though, was be a lot more brutal with my time - more flexible hours, not going to meetings unless I was really needed etc. My other plan was to cut down on ridiculous amounts of global travel I was doing, but COVID solved that issue for me anywayAny tips from ‘the retired’ for those in the working waiting room. 18 months at most before I jump aboard the retirement train. Caught between showing enthusiasm to ‘f—k off’ MS Teams.
