Since 2000, The American BoomeR Group has been dedicated through consulting to help organizations, business leaders, employees, and consumers enhance organizational growth, workplace performance, and professional lifestyles, and providing information and resources to enhance the lifestyles of America’s baby boomer generation to reach their potential and “Make A Difference”!
Baby boomers (those born between 1945-1965) number almost 80 million in the U.S. and every seven seconds another American turns 50 and 10,000 boomers retire each day! Boomers control the marketplace in lifestyle and leisure, spending, healthcare, real estate, and finance. As boomers continue to live life, The American Boomer Group offers resources and a forum to address their needs and inspire baby boomers to live more fulfilling and meaningful lives.
Boomers are the generation that rebelled against the “establishment” during the turbulent ’60s. Today, boomers are the establishment as we enter the threshold of the 21st century. Boomers were the generation that turned on, tuned out, thought green, protested, and did Vietnam. They went and continue to be motivated by hearts and values versus doctrine and norm, engaging in social causes and staying patriotic while protesting social intolerance and political injustice. Along the way, boomers became loyal to themselves, family, and their networks. Professionally, boomers developed an entrepreneurial spirit and continue to lead and influence the wave of the business world. The baby boomer generation is better educated than their parents, and for the most part, embrace diversity and practice tolerance more than previous generations. Culturally, boomers are nostalgic for reminders of the past lifestyle they grew up in, all while perhaps being the last generation that had it better than their parents economically, socially, and as a whole.
For over 20 years, The American BoomeR Group has been a pioneer in connecting and educating boomers and organizations about resources, products, and services through speaking and training, its site, and online publication, Today’s BoomeR magazine, launched in 2012, adding to the vision of The American BoomeR Group to help organizations and individuals stay productive, engaged, informed, and living better while aging.
