It's been about forty years since the term work-life balance was first used. Since then, it has been used broadly to refer to everything from the need for more leisure or family time to self-care. These days, we are not only working more and connected to our jobs via technology - but we may be working from home, or as our guest today describes it, living at work!
⠀
There is a new term on the block and that’s called work life integration. According to UC Berkeley's School of Business, this is an approach that creates more synergies between all areas that define 'life': work, home/family, community, personal well-being, and health.
⠀
Today we are going to hear from @gregfsmyth who has worked in several industries ranging from oil and gas here at home and the gulf of Mexico, to high tech in Silicone Valley where he led a team for Tesla. He will share his journey and what he has learned about ensuring balance and healthy lifestyle into his family’s day to day. He will also share how the sense of community here in NL has inspired him to keep Newfoundlanders connected around the world through his organization @global.nl – allowing us to tap into what might be our most valuable resource we have here in the province – each other.
