Reader Comment: Managing Remotely & Work-Life Balance

MTW blog received a thoughtful note from a reader about how the changing face of the workforce is accelerating the need for leadership on work-life balance. Here’s the comment, which definitely deserves to be shared:

Your first blog on managing remotely is very relevant to the changes that have happened (and are still happening) in the country (and globally).  Check out NBC’s Meet The Press video/podcast with Maria Shriver and John Podesta. With women making up 50% of the workforce, there is a push for businesses, govts, and people to think smartly about work-life balance.
