Patrick Chaffin Is there life after retirement??? Or do ‘ya sit around and wait to die… Or be the old fudd reminicing about the “good old days”.
A little about me: • From New Orleans • Undergrad from LSU • Grad degree from University of Oklahoma • Married two adult children
Career stuff: • U.S. Army • Army Organizational Development Program
Career stuff: • HR roles in financial services and high tech • Center for Human Resource Management “The Early Years…” • Retired from the Army 2002, SunTrust 2010
There are some things I miss about work: My uber-effective Admin assist Having fun with my boss at the bank My fellow banking professionals The interesting and multifaceted employees at my esteemed institution
There are some things I don’t miss about work: Employee issues Boring meetings restating the obvious Leadership “challenges” “Downsizing”
So now what’s happening??? • Some things change and others stay the same… • Still play with cars… Racing My “cruiser” the ‘40
So now what’s happening??? • Having fun with our granddaughter…. • Grand parenting is the reward for not murdering your teens! So much better than having them yourself…
So now what’s happening??? • Some things change and others stay the same… • Still travel • Still enjoy hearing from HR Center members. • Still work with Dr. Witt

OD and HR Consulting More words of caution: • HR Expert Witness learnings: • You will live and die by your published policy • Mr. Documentation is your friend • “Leadership cowboys” make plaintiff attorneys rich • Truly become your leadership's trusted advisor and not the “HR police” • Listen to your employees • You are NEVER,NEVER, NEVER “off the record.
So what might this mean to you? • Know the difference between “personnel” and “Human Resources” • In addition to the fundaments of the “personnel business”: • Learn process assessment, intervention and facilitation • Become a certified coach • Learn meeting design and facilitation • Remember HR works for the client, not the other way around. • You will only survive and prosper through continuous learning. • “Be the BIG FIVE”
So what might this mean to you? • NETWORK! NETWORK! NETWORK • You are only as good as the resources you can bring to the table • Nothing is permanent • Everyone is replaceable • Make and keep friends-they save sanity
