David St. Lawrence’s blog title says it all, “Post-corporate adventures”. After being part of a workforce reduction at a Silicon Valley company, he involuntarily retired, but is running a custom woodworking business along with working an occasional business consulting gig. He is at retirement age, and may have been able to retire anyway, but the lessons he shares are applicable to anyone looking for a post corporate life, young or old. He recently wrote an e-book entitled, “Danger Quicksand – Have a Nice Day,”, offering unconventional advice on how to survive in the modern workplace. It has been such a hit that he is now self-publishing it. From running his own woodworking business to self-publishing his book to dispensing advice based on his years of experience, David has provided much inspiration for a life free from a 9 to 5 job.
