BALANCING WORK AND FAMILY

Stephen Covey has interviewed mothers, fathers, single parents and professional parents on the topic of juggling work and family. Interviewees candidly voice their responses, frustrations and suggestions, which provide practical and constructive assistance in overcoming the complications associated with parenting. Astute, compassionate, and "tuned in," Covey provides additional insights into the pros and cons of working life and offers tips on managing work-related stress. Listening to real-life parents describe the small changes they have made to enrich their lives allows listening parents to relate to their dilemmas and to begin making a plan to live more simply.
