Sure to spark heated watercooler debates, THE OPT-OUT REVOLT exposes the realities of how women and men really think about their careers, their lives, and themselves, and what organizations can do to prevent today's "brain drain" trend from threatening the health and competitiveness of their business. Profiles of courageous individuals and trailblazing companies get to the heart of the challenges and rewards awaiting those who choose to develop Kaleidoscope Careers that don't require sacrificing life balance, authenticity, or challenge in their work.
"THE OPT-OUT REVOLT illuminates what workers want in a career--and the mystery of why employers are not providing enough of it. The authors' kaleidoscope model is a convincing solution that should be embraced by people and companies alike: to let people rearrange the pattern to help them be both productive and fulfilled." --Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School Professor and best-selling author of "Confidence: How Winning Streaks and Losing Streaks Begin and End"
THE OPT-OUT REVOLT goes behind the headlines hearlding this remarkable movement to capture the realities of our contemporary workplace. Copublished with WorldatWork(R)/Alliance for Work-Life Progress, it is packed full of personal stories and life lessons garnered from studies of more than 3,000 women and men who have created unique careers within and outside of traditional corporate boundaries.
Authors Mainiero and Sullivan deliver the facts: how the universal need for authenticity, balance, and challenge are driving career and life decisions; what choices women are making and why; how men's priorities differ from those of women and how they affect their career paths; and what the best organizations are doing to stem the flow of talent heading out the door.
