The world needs it. Change is taking place at a faster pace. What one is expected to accomplish is accelerated. Corporations, nonprofit and for-profit alike, expect more of people. Downsizing is at its highest and unemployment is at its lowest.
People bring a lot of baggage to work and many times it's what's happening in their personal life.
We need a way to deal with personal issues and not feel like our career is all-encompassing. When people focus on other aspects of life, like relationships, health and fitness, spirituality and emotions, and attempt to succeed there, they create a sense of balance. That ultimately supports productivity in their career. It's not impossible to run an organization and stay in balance. We just have to be honest about what we're capable of and not capable of.
