Work Life Priorities – Forum by Michelle Obama’s at White House

Nurse Barbara Day, and son Vince, celebrate the time they get to spend together

Holy Smokes! I knew that Michelle Obama’s two pet projects were military families and work-life balance.  Now she’s added childhood obesity. But talk is just talk. I’ve been looking for action. Check this out:  According to a Whilte House Press Release, the Obama Administration announced plans today to hold a Forum on Workplace Flexibility on March 31st at the White House. The President and First Lady will discuss the importance of creating workplace practices that allow America’s working men and women to meet the demands of their jobs without sacrificing the needs of their families.  Read the full release here: http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/white-house-announces-forum-workplace-flexibility

Wow! No one has a more stressful job than the president. Of course, he has a lot more resources to solve his problems than most of do, but he still has only the same 24 hours in a day that we have.

I don’t know what to expect of this Forum? Window dressing? Progress? I do know that we DON”T need another government study! What would YOU like to say to the president and Mrs. Obama about work-life issues? Comment away!
