| Abstract
|
:
|
Today's managers and executives are cash rich but time poor. Surveys show that up to 80% of managers exceed their contracted hours, while cases of work-related stress continue to increase at an alarming rate. Although awareness of the issues of career vs home life has been around since the 1970s, little has been done beyond the introduction of ineffectual legislation.
