Balance isn't an issue of time, but an issue of choice.It's about living your values by aligning your behavior withwhat you believe is really important. Aligning your behavior withyour values is much like any other developmental experience; thebasic process involves assessment, challenge, and support. You needto determine where you are, define where you want to go, and thenput into place the tools you need to get there.
Balance is about more than how you spend your time. It'sabout how you live your life. It's about recognizing that youhave control over the choices you make and aligning your behaviorwith your values.

Über Autor(innen)

This series of guidebooks draws on the practical knowledge that theCenter for Creative Leadership (CCL) has generated, sinceits inception in 1970, through its research and educationalactivity conducted in partnership with hundreds of thousands ofmanagers and executives. Much of this knowledge is shared-in a waythat is distinct from the typical university department,professional association, or consultancy. CCL is not simply acollection of individual experts, although the individualcredentials of its staff are impressive; rather it is a community,with its members holding certain principles in common and workingtogether to understand and generate practical responses to today'sleadership and organizational challenges.
The purpose of the series is to provide managers with specificadvice on how to complete a developmental task or solve aleadership challenge. In doing that, the series carries out CCL'smission to advance the understanding, practice, and development ofleadership for the benefit of society worldwide.
