Given the work environments and expectations for women in science, and the fact that a career in science is very often a way of life and far more than a job, work-life balance satisfaction can be elusive. While advocating for change in policies and systems continues to be important, women must find the personal work-life balance strategies that work for them within the systems in which they work.  As a benefit to AWIS chapter members and in partnership with the Elsevier Foundation, this interactive program and follow-up web-based materials and resources will help participants:

  • Define for themselves what work-life satisfaction is and is not
  • Understand how incongruence between priorities and actions can drain energy and negatively impact work-life satisfaction
  • Examine how their current choices impact work-life balance and identify changes that will have the biggest impact on personal and professional satisfaction
  • Identify 7 keys to achieving and maintaining work-life satisfaction
  • Craft a personalized plan to improve work-life balance satisfaction
