The Wheel of Work Life Balance
For the first time in 25 years managers are willing to take a step back in terms of salary and career opportunities to preserve the quality of their private life.
56 % of them would refuse a promotion in order to preserve their work-life balance
“…to search the best fit between personal and private ambitions and the goals, common values and ambitions of one’s employer and this by focussing on selfmanagement, knowing oneself, selfcoaching and self)learning”
Ref: 1.”Personal Balanced Scorecard” Scriptum Mgt 2006/Hubert Rampersad 2. “Association of Executive Search Consultants “(AESC)
