Working in Retirement: A Primer for Federal Retirees - with Tamara Guttman

Are you interested in taking on some contracts or casual work after your public service career? Join Tamara Guttman, NAFR member and part-time working retiree for a workshop designed to provide federal retirees with a primer on the rules and best practices to seek work and manage the professional part of your retired life, while also protecting your pension.

More on our presenter:

 

Tamara had a rewarding career with Global Affairs Canada for over 32 years, serving in a wide range of diplomatic roles at home and abroad, including as Canada’s Ambassador to Hungary, Slovenia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, and as the department’s Inspector General.  Outside of the foreign service, she has also been a speech writer and advisor to the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, and later was Director of Communications for the Association of Professional Executives of the Public Service of Canada (APEX).​

Since retiring in 2022, Tamara has enjoyed having the flexibility to pursue her passions, including creating her own business, TLG Consulting & Communications, to lend her experience and expertise to clients on leadership development and organizational ethics and effectiveness. She is an accomplished training guide and facilitator, and has built a unique role as an advisor and training specialist on the transition to retirement for federal public servants, in collaboration with the National Association of Federal Retirees and government partners.

The content will be presented in English, however bilingual participation is encouraged. La présentation se fera en anglais, mais la participation dans les deux langues officielles est encouragée.
