Join the Career Development Committee for a presentation by Wharton's Practice Professor of Management Stew Friedman about his new book, Leading the Life You Want: Skills for Integrating Work and Life, on Monday, October 20, 2014 from 6-8 pm.
Context: You're busy trying to lead a "full" life. But does it really feel full - or are you merely stretched too thin? If you're seeking "work/life balance," you'll never achieve it; instead of "work" competing with "life," the goal should be to create harmony amongst the domains of work, home, community, and the private self. During his talk, Stew will share research and original stories from six remarkable people who have integrated work and the rest of life, producing significant public success:
