The ultimate balancing act: Managing Career, family and personal life<br />
One of the key challenges we face throughout our professional lives is how to achieve and maintain the<br />
so-called “healthy” balance between our careers, family and personal time. As most of us have already<br />
experienced, our time and energy become increasingly scarce resources that must be allocated wisely in<br />
order to lead happy, healthy lives. To this end, we are sometimes led to make sacrifices and choices which<br />
consequences shape the direction of our lives. Although the answer is not a one-size-fits-all approach,<br />
this continual pursuit of balance is race and gender-blind as it affects all of us as we strive to excel in all<br />
aspects of our lives. The goal of this panel is to discuss the realities of these challenges both on a general<br />
and daily level and how to better address them. Our panelists are well-regarded professionals who have<br />
managed to achieve a balanced life that they are happy with; but not without their share of sacrifices and<br />
trade-offs. They will share their insights with us so that we can learn from their experience and hopefully<br />
emerge with a broader perspective and a practical approach to successfully manage work, family and personal<br />
time.<br />
