Managers' work and retirement
Private sector managers' pathways through late career and retirement are important, but insufficiently studied. Based on a large qualitative study of retiring managers in big Canadian firms, this article explores the relationships between managers' work during their careers, their retirement transitions and their retirement activities. Three distinctive patterns of managerial work and careers are found: those of expert managers, organization mana…
Reinventing retirement
Retirement involves a set of institutional arrangements combined with socio-cultural meanings to sustain a distinct retirement phase in life course and career pathways. In this Introduction to the Special Issue: ‘Reinventing Retirement: New Pathways, New Arrangements, New Meanings,’ we outline the historical development of retirement. We identify the dramatic broad-based changes that recently have shaken this established construct to its core. We…
Pursuing Career Success while Sustaining Personal and Family Well‐Being
This study examines the experiences, over 6 years, of 73 managers and high level professionals who reduced their workloads to achieve more sustainable career and family outcomes. We compared personal, family, and career success outcomes for people who maintained reduced loads over time with those who went back to full time work, and we found few differences, except for more promotions for the full‐timers. To further understand our results, we ide…
Entangled strands
The goal of this study is to develop a theoretical framework to illuminate the process of careers unfolding over time in an overall life context. We draw on data from a qualitative field study of the career paths of 81 professionals who pursued working on a reduced-load basis as a strategy for sustaining commitment to both their careers and family lives. Using multiple methods to analyze what happened between two interviews approximately six year…

Balancing exploration and exploitation in alternative work arrangements
In this inductive study we investigate the local context surrounding professionals choosing to work on a reduced‐load basis. We analyze qualitative data collected from key individuals (spouse, boss, co‐worker, and HR manager) composing a network around several professionals working reduced load in the professional and management services industry. We describe the interactions in this network using the concepts of exploration and exploitation in f…
Life Space Structure
The concept of life space structure described elsewhere is developed and explored as a means of representing and explaining the effectiveness of individuals' characteristic behavioral patterns of arranging work and personal life. Common problems and opportunities of work and personal life coordination are described and analyzed from the perspective of four types of life space structure: home-based nuclear, work-based nuclear, conjoint, and diffus…
Probing Behavioral Patterns of Structuring Daily Life
The development of a methodology for accurate observation, identification, and representation of characteristic patterns of structuring work and personal life is described. The results of two studies are used to test the reliability and validity of the methodology. Different types and subtypes of life space structure are proposed on the basis of observations of similar configurations of subject scores on behavioral dimensions of movement through …
