Balancing a successful career, a thriving family, and personal well-being is no small task. How do we balance competing priorities that all seem to be the most important? What are some real-life, pragmatic strategies for confronting this challenge? In this lunchtime discussion, Dean Phil Weiser will moderate a conversation with three successful professionals about the challenges and triumphs of developing a successful career while raising a family and maintaining individual happiness and satisfaction.
