“The pressure to perform is relentless in today's workplace - regardless of where you work. We are all being asked to do more with less.

That is an expression used by tech types to mean using what you make or sell.” ThinkingMeanTodayUsedCultureDogExpressionTypePressureSellsValleysWorkplaceRelentlessSiliconSilicon ValleyDog Food Author:Willow Bay
“Wrestling with work-life balance is a luxury when working to support a family is a necessity rather than a choice. I think that focus is only partially a result of these tough economic times. I think it also reflects a bit of "having it all fatigue": women are worn out from feeling the pressure to excel at work, and be the perfect mom at home.” ThinkingFeelingsHomeChoicesBitsPerfectResultsSupportFocusEconomicMomBalanceToughPressureLuxuryWrestlingWornFatigueWork Life BalanceWorn OutLife BalanceWork And Life BalanceTough Economic Times Author:Willow Bay
“Sheryl Sandberg and Marissa Meyer have already accomplished more than most. I think the sky is the limit for them professionally. If they can inspire more women to "lean in," as Sandberg so famously describes it - to pursue a career and a family - that would be an incredible accomplishment. If they can, by their example as hands on mothers and high powered executives, show young women that they don't need to leave the workplace when they have children, they will be superheroes.” IfsThinkingNeedsChildrenShowsHandsWould BeYoungMotherCareersSkyExampleInspireLimitsIncrediblesPursueAccomplishmentAccomplishedExecutivesYoung WomenWorkplaceSuperheroSky Is The Limit Author:Willow Bay
