Compatibility & Work-Life Balance in the Scientific Context

What is the secret of people who successfully manage their different tasks and roles in their lives without constantly feeling like running in the treadmill? What is their key to resilience in challenging situations? How do they get it all under one roof without burning out? In this interactive talk, Daniela Elsner, business-life coach, psychotherapist (HPr.G), professor of learning and teaching, mother of 3 and author of the book “Ausgebalanced” (Gabal Verlag) shares her personal and scientific knowledge on how successful people get “it all” under one roof. Her first recommendation : “Forget the work-life balance, tailor your life!”

We will take a critical look at the current model of work-life balance and understand that a balanced life is a very individual perception, which starts with self- responsibility and the right attitude towards ones life goals. We will learn about a new model for work-life design and some of its underlying principles to achieve more satisfaction with one’s (working)-life.
