Session Description: We used to talk about work/life “balance,” but, for busy working people, attempting that balance often means sacrificing some things for others. Instead, employees, aided by their managers, should strive to integrate home life and work life in a way that works for them as individuals. These presentations will deliver secrets for successfully managing the limited time we have in life, from handling interruption to defeating disorganization to recovering wasted time.

Session Objectives:

• Understand the difference between work-life balance and work-life integration and how it impacts workplace culture and employee engagement
• Review and discuss the advantages of work-life integration
• Provide tips for leaders to encourage work-life integration
