Work-Life Balance: What’s Your Flexstyle?

The buzz: Work-life what? The term ‘work-life balance’ has become a cliché for a frustrating goal that few of us in the workforce ever reach, or reach very often. With boundaries between work and family more blurred than ever, stress, job burnout, and competition for our time all take a toll on our work productivity and our health. Take heart. Now there’s flexstyle, a more nuanced way of finding balance that reflects individual working styles. Is flexstyle the right fit for you and your employer? The experts speak. Brenda A. Lautsch, Simon Fraser University: “Flexibility isn’t the answer to everyone’s work-life balance problems.” Dr. Ellen Ernst Kossek, Purdue University: “Make technology work for you, not against you...redraw the lines between work and family.” Karie Willyerd, SAP: “Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.” (Refrigerator magnet) Join us for Work-Life Balance: What’s Your Flexstyle?
