 Reinventing Leadership for Longer Lives

One of the most talked-about sessions at the PWN Global Summit in Lisbon is back.

Join internationally recognised leadership expert Avivah Wittenberg-Cox for an inspiring online webinar exploring how longer lives are transforming careers, leadership and the way we think about success.

What if your most impactful work is still ahead of you?

For generations, careers followed a predictable path: learn, work, retire.

That model no longer reflects reality.

Today, we are living and working longer than ever before. Avivah's groundbreaking 4-Quarter Life framework invites us to see longevity not as an extension of the same career, but as an opportunity to reinvent ourselves multiple times.

At the heart of this conversation is Q3, a stage often reached in our 50s and 60s, when experience becomes a powerful advantage. Rather than stepping back, this can be the perfect moment to start a new business, lead a new initiative, learn emerging technologies, mentor others, or redefine your purpose.

This webinar builds on Avivah's highly acclaimed keynote from Lisbon and expands the conversation through practical insights and audience interaction.

During this session, you'll discover:

  • Why traditional career models no longer fit today's reality
  • How the 4-Quarter Life changes the way we think about work and leadership
  • Why Q3 may become the most rewarding chapter of your career
  • How continuous learning and AI are creating new opportunities at every age
  • Practical ideas to rethink your own next chapter

Whether you attended the Summit or are joining us for the first time, this webinar will leave you inspired, challenged, and ready to imagine new possibilities.

Your career isn't ending. It's evolving.

Register today and continue the conversation that inspired leaders across the PWN community.


The Midlife Rethink

Major transitions and crises invite a rethink. Here is the time and the toolbox to help individuals and teams navigate lengthening careers, lifelong learning, and transitional resilience in 3 major steps.

  • Harvest the Past

Where I’ve been. A review of life to date, where you’ve come from, what you’ve experienced, and what you’ve learnt.

  • Assess the Present

Where I’m standing. Where am I in the arc of life – and with whom am I traveling? What roles/relationships/beliefs do I want to keep, and what do I need to leave behind?

  • Map the Future

Who I’m becoming. The dream, the role models and the choices I need to make to move towards the future I want.

Longevity & Generational balance

The next big demographic shift on the horizon is the longevity revolution, the explosive combination of ageing populations and falling birthrates across the globe. The resulting squeeze on talent pools will require businesses to attract, retain and develop talent of all ages. Companies will want to enable 5-generation workforces to thrive and grow at every stage of ever-longer careers. And leaders will want to become 'longevity fluent.'

The longevity economy is a largely untapped market opportunity. More generationally-balanced workforces will give businesses an edge to more skilfully connect with customers of all ages — including the older demographic with the greatest purchasing power, time and unmet demands.

Finally, the implications of longevity from a purely evolutionary point of view are a fascination for Avivah. Why are humans living so much longer? How do we benefit collectively from this unprecedented moment? How do we craft intergenerational innovation to serve (and perhaps save) the future? What personal transformations take place across life's 4 Quarters — and how do we best prepare for them?

Careers are stretching from 30-year sprints to 60-year marathons. Are you ready?

While lifespans have expanded, mindsets have not kept up. Long lives require a rethink and a roadmap for transitioning gracefully through entirely new phases – from millennials to perennials. Longevity will impact the young as much as the old as it redraws the very shape of what careers and lives will morph into and how to pace yourself across perhaps ten decades. At its best, the autumn season of life brings an extraordinary freedom – to re(define) the narrative of lives and legacies. Yet many people experience it more as a shocking tumble into a phase of life they have not thought about and for which they are sorely unprepared.
