Project Boomerang: Reinvent Your Future Retirement with AIM 24


Welcome to Project Boomerang by AIM and partners, a groundbreaking initiative for Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers in their 50s and beyond. As you approach retirement, transform it into a vibrant "second act" through this mentoring program. You can avoid the pitfalls of retirement such as identity loss and social isolation by staying active, engaged, and contributing to society and future generations (university students, freshmen teachers, new parents, young professionals, entrepreneurs, SME owners, those in career and life transitions, etc) by paying it forward via mentoring, based on our 5 (+2) Pillars of Mentorship: Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Career Resilience, Parenting, Personal Well-Being, Sustainability, and AI & Humanity. 


We're launching this unique program and seeking mentors in their mid-50s and beyond. As a part of our community, you'll enjoy:

  • A half-day self-discovery workshop. 

  • Monthly facilitated group learning sessions.

  • Mentor-mentee matching to kickoff your 6-month mentorship journey.

  • Mentor Circles for ongoing learning and peer support. 

  • Discounts to AIM's Certified Professional Mentor training.

Join us in this journey of renewal and lifelong learning with Project Boomerang. It's more than retirement; it's a new chapter of growth and giving back.


Become a Boomerang mentor with us and shape the future, one life at a time.


Inaugural intake: May 2024. Maximum of 12 participants, first-come-first-serve.
