Rick Grimaldi Interviews with Fortune on Managing Work-Life Balance

Rick, author of "FLEX: A Leader’s Guide to Staying Nimble and Mastering Transformative Change in the American Workplace," explains that a change in work-life balance is part of what’s keeping us from fully embracing vacation mode. “It’s not just that work is encroaching on our ‘free’ time, our personal lives are also spilling into our workday,” Rick says. “It’s more and more common for employees to set their own hours, work remotely at least part of the time, leave to pick up kids from school…” But he adds, “Moving between worlds is not always easy.
