Balancing the needs of a career with finding time for personal or family commitments can be a challenge, and working long hours results in decreased performance and stress-related illness. Deborah Tom combines analysis with exercises and case studies to introduce simple but effective strategies to help us understand these issues, and to find a balance in our social, professional and personal lives. This audio version is based on the BBC book of the same name. Deborah Tom is a chartered occupational psychologist. She runs two training and development companies, helping individuals, companies and organisations, including the BBC, achieve excellence.
