| Finding That Hard-to-Attain Work-Life Balance |
|
by Lauree Padgett
|
| People tend to get a lot of random emails that they send right to the trash. A few months ago, one such wayward email (or so I thought) arrived in my inbox promoting the book Your Career Advantage: Overcome Challenges to Achieve a Rewarding Work Life. However, I glanced over the press release and thought it would have potential ... so I read the book. I hope you find these takeaways as valuable as I did. |
