7 Keys to Work-Life Balance

7 Keys to Work-Life Balance

Student. Leader. Team Member. Summer Intern. Job Candidate. Spouse/Partner. Friend. Entrepreneur. Just some of the many roles you may fill during your time at Wharton. Mix the time and commitments of these roles with a desire for exercise, sleep and downtime and it often adds up to overwhelm... too much to do, not enough time or energy to do it. “Work-Life Balance” is elusive.

The Wharton Leadership Development Workshop Series is excited to present a highly interactive and personalized program to help participants design a more optimal mix of personal, professional and academic priorities. In this workshop, participants will gain an understanding of the 7 Keys to work-life balance and define which Keys will support them personally. They will also receive tools and resources to guide them in creating short-term change and in making long-term sustainable choices.

Workshop includes the following topics:

  • The Myth of Work-Life Balance
  • Key 1: Develop Priorities
  • Key 2: Create Boundaries
  • Key 3: Manage Your Day Efficiently
  • Key 4: Design Reasonable Expectations
  • Key 5: Reprioritize Your Values
  • Key 6: Navigate an Unbalanced Organizational Culture
  • Key 7: Engage in Self-Care
  • Putting it All Together, Making Choices and Maintaining Momentum

This workshop was created and will be led by Julie Cohen, PCC. Julie is an executive coach (and a Wharton Leadership Coach) who has coached hundreds of clients who want greater satisfaction, success and meaning from their career, work and life.
