Course Overview
The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through remote work and home life balance. A process for life balance that managers quietly work around has already failed. Most organisations already have a policy on the people management and development discipline; far fewer can show it working. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about remote work and home life balance under scrutiny. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make this strand of people management and development hard in practice. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for life balance, not for observers of it. Applied research in people management and development consistently shows that early structure around remote work and home life balance reduces downstream rework. The course sets out a working method for life balance that participants can apply the week they return. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this aspect of people management and development that participants can repeat annually.
