Examines the shifting demographic, economic, and social forces--the changing gAnder roles, harsher economic realities, and dual career families--that pull managers and executives out of balance.

Provides numerous checklists and self-assessment tools to help determine the degree and the nature of imbalance in our lives and in our organizations. Outlines a step-by-step process for personal change that can lead to an improved quality of life and provides individuals with a blueprint for initiating organizational changes that jointly optimize personal development and organizational effectiveness."The definitive guide for finding balance in our personal and organizational lives. I have added Joan Kofodimos's insightful work to the 'must-read list' for our executive programs."--Robert W. Conroy, M.D., director, Menninger Management Institute
