14 years ago business journalist (you may read her articles in Oprah magazine) Suzy Welch was a high-profile busy working mother of four struggling to find the perfect work/life balance. When her attempt to combine a business trip with a family vacation ended in disaster, Suzy realised she had reached breaking point. In this interview Suzy Welch offers the perfect tool for making tough decisions, allowing us to find clarity and regain control of our lives! So, how do we make decisions that take into account the long and short term implications of our decisions on our staff, families, businesses, clients, suppliers – all those people who are affected by the decisions we make? How do our decisions align to our values? Or, to our business objectives? Or to our personal goals. Today we look at a simple strategy that allows us to keep all this in perspective and ensures that our decisions serve us in a day from now, a month from now and years from now. I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Suzy Welch. Suzy is
- energetic
- passionate
- and very realistic
She was the editor of the Harvard Business Review. She’s had a long and successful career as a business journalist. You may have read her column in Oprah magazine. I interviewed Suzy about her new book:
10-10-10: A Life Transforming Idea
- We talked about making important decisions,
- the myth about work/life balance,
- and women and leadership.
10-10-10 is available in good bookstores.
