Elaboración de proyecto de vida para el personal docente y administrativo de una institución de educación superior próximo al proceso de jubilación

Abstract

Abstract: This research aimed to design a comprehensive life plan for teaching and administrative staff at a higher education institution who were nearing retirement, with the goal of fostering a planned, satisfying, and well-being-oriented transition. Methodologically, the study employed a qualitative approach using an instrumental case study design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and support logs involving participants approaching retirement. The results revealed participant needs across family, social, economic, health, personal, and legal dimensions, highlighting the importance of family support, financial planning, self-care, and legal guidance. These insights enabled the development of support and guidance strategies that helped participants create a comprehensive life plan, thereby strengthening the planning of personal, family, financial, and health-related goals. Furthermore, these strategies reduced uncertainty regarding retirement and promoted greater autonomy, emotional well-being, and positive adaptation to this new stage of life.
