Why you should read Work + Life
Are you struggling to balance work with your personal life? You are not alone. Most workers don’t know exactly what they want, but they know they want something different. Cali Williams Yost warns that her book will not hold your hand and present you with the perfect solution. Instead, she says, the job is up to you. Nevertheless, she manages to be surprisingly reassuring. She provides practical exercises at the end of each chapter, explains time-tested strategies and presents case studies to illustrate her claim that anyone can find a satisfying balance between his or her career and personal life. getAbstract recommends this book to any employee seeking a better work-life fit. Managers may feel reassured to hear that Yost places the responsibility on the worker, rather than simply blaming companies for being too rigid.
