Abstract
This phenomenological study explores how older, professional men coped adaptively with involuntary job loss, following the global financial crisis of 2008. Participants demonstrated skillful engagement, Stoic wisdom, narrative openness, and rugged interdependence to learn through the uncertainties that accompanied this unanticipated life transition.
Keywords: Adaptive change, transitional learning, adult development, gerontology
