After reading several articles about flexibility in the workplace, a more common topic is bubbling to the surface of many respectable publications. Here’s one that states: Bottom Line: Working fathers are placing more importance on their familial obligations, and companies must react to this societal shift.
My first thought, what will that mean for many companies who rely on fathers being more focused on career than family? What will Google, Apple or Facebook do, add frozen sperm to the egg freezer?
Will be interesting to see how this conversation shapes our inflexible corporate clock of 5 days x 8am-5pm, and job loyalty altogether. It seems the Europeans and Canadians have figured it out, why can’t Americans? Why must we constantly battle for things like vacation and fight for quality of life at work at all?
