CLICK HERE FOR THE 2015 FALL CLE WRITTEN MATERIALS
Building on OWLS’ highly successful 2014 Fall CLE, which addressed the impact of generational differences on the modern workplace, topics this year, we focused on time pressures on professionals who seek to create a better work-life balance. As societal trends based on millennial and Gen-X values increasingly demand that parents play a larger role in their children’s education and home lives, all working parents face the discomfort that comes from trying to balance work with family. As technology continues to erode traditional boundaries between work and home, the level of overwhelm increases dramatically. The effects are felt by both employer and employee, as shown by rising attrition rates of new hires. What can be done? Informed by both legal and non-legal industries, our keynote speakers discussed what a workplace aligned to address a more equitable work-life balance could look like.The program featured award-winning journalist Brigid Schulte, author of Overwhelmed – How to Work, Love and Play When No One Has the Time, and Patricia Gillette, San Francisco attorney and coach.
