Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1, 3, University of Cooperative Education Stuttgart, course: Intercultural Management, language: English, abstract: Typing in 'Work Life Balance Movement in the US' in various search engines does not deliver a very satisfying result. Google, Yahoo and Bing are totally overloaded with information like newspaper articles, books and Human Resource consulting firms trying to sell their idea of Work Life Balance, Tips & Tricks and of course their best and only way to achieve it. Where does all that content come from and which is right? Is there any right or wrong? Is Work Life Balance a black or white topic? Is it something where only one opinion is right and all others are useless and doomed to failure? Hundreds of studies within the last couple of years and an unknown vast mass of self-declared experts suggest that Work Life Balance is a topic of fashion. Like burnout - a huge bubble ready to burst and ready to be used as excuse for almost everything. Used as an excuse for failure in business, family and friends. Obvious it is a topic that attracts lots of attention in both the employees' and employers' mind.
