Study Shows Men Are Just As Stressed As Women In Achieving Work-Life Balance

Study Shows Men Are Just As Stressed As Women In Achieving Work-Life BalanceStudy Shows Men Are Just As Stressed As Women In Achieving Work-Life Balance The startling results of an American Psychological Association study , indicating males are as conflicted as females, contradicts a commonly held belief that men dont stress over work-life balance. However, Krister Ungerboeck, a consultant for geschftliches miteinander leaders, isnt taken aback by the fact that, despite public perception, both men and women have nearly identical levels of conflict in work-balance.Ungerboeck says men are dealing with the double whammy of feeling guilty for missing their kids lives and at the same time ashamed for not seeming cutthroat enough at work. The former CEO of a struggling software company, which he expanded 3000%, Ungerboeck experienced at first hand the personal costs of stereotypical masculinity. That in-the-trenches experience enabled Ungerboeck to found CEO Growth , a co aching firm exclusively for the C-suite.Despite common expectations, Ungerboeck says that the lessons he learned in his own career about giving consideration to the family are just as important as any bottom-line wisdom.As important as it is to help CEOs and owners push business to the next level, says the father of two, it is equally important to help them gain perspective on the value of a personal life.Glassdoor Do you see men struggling with the expectation that they must live up to a stereotype of masculinity which the report indicates is outdated and toxic?Krister Ungerboeck Yes. Theres mora of an expectation that men who are in the workforce, are going to put their job ahead of their kids, and their family. Theyre going to be the ones who work late. But the truth is a lot of us struggle with that. Men often feel they arent supposed to take a personal day when their kid is sick, so they dont.I think there is an element of cultural norms, where maybe its expected for a man to be able to stay late. When I welches a CEO, I was probably unconsciously more flexible when a woman, even a woman executive, if she needed to do some things to go do things for the kids. There was an assumption about male and female roles.I think that that maybe puts a little more pressure on male executives, or men in the workforce, who dont get that flexibility. Add to that, if I were to look at the number of times that male executives came to me and asked for time off for their kids, it was significantly lower.Many executives had wives who worked, and I think thats theres also some cultural expectation that in a two-income family (even if they are equal earners) that matters of the family would anliegen more frequently onto the female.Glassdoor How do we change the idea of masculinity in the workplace? If these are untruths, how do we knock them down?Krister Ungerboeck The change really needs to start from the top-down. Bosses need to make it clear that they prioritize their own children and their own family responsibilities, and let their employees see that it is okay to leave work early sometimes if your child is ill or has a ball game. They also need to encourage employees to use their vacation days and to take regular breaks.Glassdoor But a lot of employees feel unsafe to take family time. How do you allay those fears, changing the office culture?Krister Ungerboeck Its the boss whose actions get amplified, right? So, if your employees hear you say, Hey, Im going to my sons baseball game. Im leaving the office at 430 today they know its safe for them to attend to their families too. ? Being clear with people, letting people know, and then setting an example that its okay to leave at 5 oclock is powerful.Glassdoor One of the biggest hurdles we all face is time. How do you handle all that time at work away from family?Krister Ungerboeck I have been guilty in the past of spending too much time working. I used to tell people that my longest day was 42 hou rs. We now know we have research that shows us that we dont function well in that kind of situation. You cant get good work done.Someone told me once that its actually the people who really should be respected are the people who are able to get the job done and achieve the business results in 40-50 hours, not the people who have to take 80 hours to do the same level of results.Glassdoor Knowing from data that too many hours arent productive, have you changed your use of time?Krister Ungerboeck Yes. I dont think that Ive consistently spent more than 45 hours in the office in ten years. With emailing and phoning time (from home) its maybe 50 hours. It gets done and I have a better balance. I dont have all the stress and dorfwiese that built up when almost my whole life was work.Glassdoor By managing your hours, but not lessening your productivity it sets an example, too?Krister Ungerboeck Yes, thats setting an example.Its how you treat your employees time that also sends a message . When I would call my executives on the weekend or in the evening I have told them to let the call go to voicemail. That way I can let them know if they need to return the call right away, or if it can wait until Monday. If its an urgent matter they know to call. I dont think that, probably for the last 10 years, I can think of a time that I would regularly call any executives outside of business hours unless it was urgent. And if you have urgent matters more than a handful of times per year, then you probably have a different problem in your business.Glassdoor This study makes the point that fathers want to be more involved with family than in past generations. Is that true from your experience?Krister Ungerboeck I think definitely, that compared to the baby boomer parents, my generation (in his early 40s) wants more involvement in our kids lives. A lot of the CEOs I coach want, of course, to improve professionally, but they want help with their personal relationships too.Glassdo or You refer to yourself as a Recovering Asshole CEO. Why did you change that toxic part of your life?Krister Ungerboeck It was a combination of a couple things. Part of the change came about after one of those anonymous 360 surveys. It was part of a leadership program that I was participating in. I had been told that the more toxic the boss, the more data is needed. If 30 people are saying all the same things about you, its hard to ignore. I knew I had to change.In my case, the 360 survey crossed from business to personal. Before this survey, I thought, Im a different person at work than I am personally. But the data showed I was having the same problems at home.When you have toxic leaders, theyre probably carrying that over to how theyre raising their kids, or carrying over to how theyre communicating with their spouse. Probably better to catch that earlier, before you get divorced, or you find out you have adult children youre not connected with.Glassdoor Youre saying that worki ng style can follow you home? That work and home are intertwined and not in a good way sometimes?Krister Ungerboeck Yes. You may be saying to yourself, Hey, thats whats gotten me successful as a CEO or a boss, but if you dont change that behavior then youre going to be passing these traits on to your kids. If youve got a lot of stress at work, you may be taking that home, to your spouse and kids Theres a fair amount of data that that stress and grasflche and frustration is contagious. By taking that frustration and anger home, it spreads to their family.Glassdoor How do you remedy that cycle of stress which has so much to do with a skewed idea of masculinity?Krister Ungerboeck This goes back to getting rid of that stereotype of masculinity. Probably one of the most impactful experiences I had with my executive team was when we actually went through a vulnerability exercise, where each of the executive team members shared. Half the people were crying because they were talking about things that were very powerful, from their childhood mostly. That brought the team together at a whole new level than we had before.Glassdoor How do you show vulnerability and honesty to your employees? What was their reaction?Krister Ungerboeck Ive gotten teared up in front of my employees. The first time I got choked up was probably about 10 years ago. I will admit that there were certainly some individuals who came to me and gave me feedback, that they actually felt that was inappropriate that I was emotional in front of employees. But just as many employees gave me positive feedback that they felt more connected.Glassdoor Was it men or women that made those negative comments?Krister Ungerboeck It was men. Frankly, I think the individuals who did that probably were just not comfortable with being vulnerable themselves. So, I took it with a grain of salt. Certainly, there are people out there who still subscribe to the CEO must not show weakness, but I think its better to be au thentic in the long run. ? Its hard to keep up that faade forever as a business becomes increasingly complex. It adds to the stress which bleeds into your home life.Getting rid of toxic masculinity starts from the top. The leaders actions give a clear indication of whats valued in the working culture. If you appreciate your family and personal time, show it. That makes it all right for everyone and changes the culture.

MCCA Legal Diversity Career Fair

MCCA Legal Diversity Career FairDispatches from the Vault/MCCA Legal Diversity Career FairGreetings from the Marriott Marquis in Midtown Manhattan, where scads of jobseekers shuffle between recruiting booths atthe fourth annual Vault/MCCA Legal Diversity Career Fair. As the touristic throngs gawk at the twinkly lights of Times Square beyond, law school students, recent graduates and a substantial number of lateral candidates put in face time with recruiters from BigLaw, government and private corporations (the Target booth particularly resplendent in its ketchup hue). Recruiters have seen the crowd ebb and flow since the floor opened at 930 a.m., with the ever-hiring governmental agencies a popular choice in the morning and candidates stacking up for the private firms as the days progressed (at present 130 p.m. Nixon Peabody, Baker Botts, Fish Richardson and Moses Singer, among others, are keeping em waiting, whilethe DOJ seems to be the popular kid in the public sector). Anecdota l evidence suggests, logically, that more 3Ls and laterals are turning out than in years past. Deborah Innocent (JD 08, Thomas M. Cooley Law School) is one such hopeful Innocent is preparing to jump back into the academic fray come fall, when shell abflug a two-year LLM night program at New York Law School shes looking for a full-time day gig to pay the bills. (In her words, shes somewhat unique in that shes kind of transitioning between being a student and a lateral.) Innocents decision to return to the classroom was made easier by the recession, she explained The economy is tough, she said. I have to do what I have to do to give myself an edge. Now decompressing in her native Queens after taking the New York and New Jersey bars last month, Innocent stopped by the fair with realistic expectations, hoping to make connections that might prove useful down theroad rather than banking on any immediate callback. Waiting to chat with a Fish Richardson rep, she mentioned that recruiters s eemed to have their focus trained on law students entering their second year a/k/a the summer associate class of 2010. Odetta Cohen, a legal recruiting assistant for Kaye Scholer, confirmed that 2Ls are probably the primary target of her firm and its peers. No surprise there. But Cohen also pointed out that the turnout included a lot more 3Ls this year a lot of people who havent gotten offers, whereas in years past, they might have. In screening candidates for the firms 2010 summer class, Cohen estimated that only about half the attendees shed encountered had been 2Ls, with a full quarter ofthe unemployed massespresenting themselves as lateral prospects most of the latter, Cohen said, were second-and-third-year associates whod recently received walking papers. Visitors, havingendured a constant (albeit receding) stream of cataclysmic industry nachrichten over the past year, seemed to have steeled themselves for sobering updates from the private firms. Toward the end of a Nixon Pea body line thatstretched 12-deep around a corner of booths, Hofstra 3L Alexandra Cruz acknowledged that she knew it was gonna be brutal trying to find a job in tax or corporate law. Cruz, who said she was alsofocusingon Allen Overy and the FDIC as potential employers, is among the thousands of students who failed to secure a summer position this year, though she did spend three months interning for the Nassau (N.Y.) County property litigation team in the spring. Much more to come on Monday potential topics to include O.J., the homogeneity of BigLaw fashion, the rigors of military law boot camp, and, as always, pirates. - posted by ben fuchs

Happiness hack One ritual that made me much happier

Happiness hack One ritual that made me much happierHappiness hack One ritual that made me much happierWhen my wife and I moved to New York City in 2001, recently graduated from college and newly wed, we were eager to find friends. We knew nearly no one but were sure wed soon find a fun-loving group like the 20- and 30-something New Yorkers who spontaneously dropped in on one anotlagelageher on TV shows likeSeinfeldandFriends.We hatched a plan. After moving into ur Midtown Manhattan apartment, we invited all the neighbors over for drinks by placing Kinkos-printed quarter-sheets into everyones mailboxes. Then, we waited for ur versions of Chandler, Kramer, and Elaine to show up. But they didnt. In fact, no one did. As the ice in the cooler melted and the guacamole browned, not a single person among 100 apartments stopped by. Not. One. Person.Recalling that episode now, we sound embarrassingly nave. We didnt realize friendships in the real world worked nothing like the ones we had forge d in our dormitories, let alone those we saw on television. Yet as it turns out, our desire to belong to a tight community was far from foolish.Recent stusies have shown a dearth of social interaction with people you care about and who care about you not only leads to loneliness, but is also linked to a range of harmful physical effects. In other words A lack of close friendships may be hazardous to your health.Dying for friendsA 2010meta-analysisreviewed 148 studies involving over 300,000 participants and concluded that having weak social ties was as harmful to health as being an alcoholic and twice as harmful as obesity. Julianne Holt-Lunstad, co-author of the analysis, told Reuters, A lack of social relationships was equivalent to smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day.A more recent study, published in theProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, found a biological response to loneliness that triggers disease. According to the researchers, social isolation sets off a cellular c hain reaction that increases inflammation and suppresses the bodys immune response.Perhaps the most compelling evidence that friendships affect longevity comes from the ongoingHarvard Study of Adult Development. Since 1938, researchers have been following 724 men, tracking their physical health as well as social habits. Robert Waldinger, the studys current director, said in his recentTED Talk, The clearest message that we get from this 75-year study is this Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Period. Socially disconnected people are, according to Waldinger, less happy, their health declines earlier in midlife, their brain functioning declines sooner, and they live shorter lives than people who are not lonely.Lest we think having 500 Facebook friends might offer some protection, Waldinger warns, Its not just the number of friends you have its the quality of your close relationships that matters.So what makes for a quality friendship? William Rawlins, a professor of int erpersonal communications at Ohio University who studies the way people interact over the course of their lives,told The Atlanticthat satisfying friendships need three things Somebody to talk to, someone to depend on, and someone to enjoy.Finding someone to talk to, depend on, and enjoy comes naturally when were young. In college, for example, we build strong bonds when nearly everyone around us is also searching for connection. But as we grow into adulthood, the model for how to maintain our friendships isnt clear. We graduate and go our separate ways, pursuing careers and starting lives miles apart from our best friends.Suddenly work obligations and ambitions trump buddies and brewskis. It becomes impossible to be spontaneous without planning for weeks, if not months, in advance. Once children enter the picture, exhilarating nights on the town become exhausted nights on the couch.Friendships starve to deathUnfortunately, the less time we invest in people, the easier it is to make do without them, until one day it becomes too awkward to reconnect. Since we havent spoken for so long, we think, where would we even begin? If we were still close friends wouldnt we have spoken more by now?This is how friendships die - they starve to death. But as the research reveals, by allowing those friendships to starve, were also malnourishing our bodies.Case in point Several months ago, I found myself in a funk. I now live in San Francisco and whenever someone asked, How are you? my reply was the standard Silicon Valley yuppie salute Good Super busy Yet this wasnt exactly true. I wasnt good.To put things in perspective, I wasnt bad, either. Things were fine. By all measures, more than fine - I had a healthy family, a growing business, and interesting clients to work with. Id recently publisheda bookthat became a Wall Street Journal best seller, and if my social media stats were to be believed, I had plenty of friends and followers.And yet, the funk. I soon identified the p roblem The more professional opportunities came my way, the more time I spent away from my real-life friends - the people I truly cared about. Maintaining friendships with people to talk to, depend on, and enjoy takes time.As an undergraduate, I first heard the term residual benefactor in an economics class. A residual benefactor is the chump who gets whatever is left over when a company is liquidated - typically, not much. When were not careful, the people we care about often become residual benefactors We leave them for last, giving them whatever bits of time are left over after weve attended to everything else.The Solution, the kibbutzIf the food of friendship is time together, how do we make the time to ensure were all fed? My friends and I have recently come across a way to keep each other close. It fits into our lifestyles despite busy schedules and a surfeit of children. We call it the kibbutz.In Hebrew, the word means gathering, and for our gathering, four couples meet eve ry two weeks to talk about one question - sort of like an interactive TED Talk over a picnic lunch. The question might range from a deep inquiry, like Whats one thing your parents taught you that you want to pass on to your children? to a lighter, more practical question, like How do you disconnect from your iPhone on weekends?Having a topic helps in two ways. For one, it gets us past the small talk of sports and weather, and helps us open up about stuff that actually matters. Second, it prevents the gender split that happens when couples convene in groups - men in one corner, women in another. The question of the day gets us all talking together.Consistency and stiff-arming the kidsEvery other week, rain or shine, the kibbutz is on our calendars - consistency is key. Theres no back-and-forth emailing to find a time. We always meet at the same place, and each couple brings their own food so theres no prep or cleanup. If one couple cant make it, no biggie, the others carry on the conversation.What about the kids? In our group, kids are welcome, but they dont run the show. Typically they play on their own, but if they interject, theyre given a stern response that sounds something like Im having a conversation with my friends because my friends are important to me. Youre welcome to listen or join the conversation, but please dont interrupt unless its an emergency.For our childrens sake, we want them to know that adult friendships matter. We dont want them to have to rely on TV to figure out how adults interact. By watching us, our children see that being a good friend means listening when others have something to share, and not being distracted by anything else - including our cellphones, the football game, or even our own children (unless someone is bleeding).The entire affair lasts about two hours, and I always leave the kibbutz with new ideas and insights. Most important, I feel closer to my friends. No, our group isnt as funny or spontaneous as the pseudo -New Yorkers I grew up watching on TV. But it turns out that fun wasnt what I was missing - it was authentic, caring friendships. Making time to invest in my most important relationships finally snapped me out of my funk and provided the psychological nourishment I didnt know I was missing.Not only that, it turns out the time I spend with my friends is also an investment in my future health. Forget diets and the latest workout routines. The best medicine may be to gather your favorite people around a table and make a toast To friendship, and your health.Heres the gistStudies show adult friendships have a significant impact on our happiness and well-being.Committing to my kibbutz has had the biggest impact on my happiness over the past year.Heres how our group works, but the lessons can apply to any adult friendshipBook the time Reserve time on your calendar for the foreseeable future so theres no guesswork or scheduling headaches about when youll see each other again. Our group me ets every two weeks.Go deep Talking about a meaningful topic strengthens your bonds. Get past the shallow small talk. In our group, a different member brings the question of the day to each meeting.Dont let kids derail you Children benefit from seeing you model a healthy adult friendship. Tell the kids they can listen or participate, but they cant interrupt unless its an emergency.Nir Eyal is the author ofHooked How to Build Habit-Forming Productsand blogs about the psychology of products at NirAndFar.com.

16 ways to make a bad work day better

16 ways to make a schwimmschwimmbad work day better16 ways to make a bad work day betterYou probably know a rolle at work who always seems to be in a great mood. Theyre continually smiling, walking with a bounce in their step and asking everyone about their weekends. Nothing can bring them down.You might think these peppy people have an invariably positive outlook. But the truth is, everyone has bad days at work, even if they dont often show it. On the bright side, its possible for anyone to turn a seemingly lost workday around.If youre having a stressful, unproductive or slow day at work, you dont have to abandon all hope. You can take steps to boost your mood, making it easier to get through the day without feeling upset or burned out by the end.Here are 16 easy ways you can make your bad work day a little better.1. Go for a WalkHumans didnt evolve to sit in front of computer screens all day. Though it can be tempting to hide out at your desk during a bad day at work, you might ben efit more from getting up and moving around.One study foundworkers who took breaks to walk around at least once every hour had significantly higher moodscompared to their coworkers who didnt. So, moving around periodically is essential to maintaining a happy attitude at work.If youre having a bad day, stop what youre doing and walk somewhere. Getting some coffee from the break room or merely getting up to say hi to an office friend could help you come back to your work with a fresh perspective.2. Visit the OutdoorsAppreciating nature is a quick way to boost your mood. People who live near green surroundings showdecreased mental distress and higher well-beingoverall. Additionally, getting outside in the sunlight supplies you with vitamin D and a better mood.Though working in a traditional office might make it hard to spend adequate time outside, its well worth the effort. If you can, try taking your lunch break in a nearby park or garden.If you absolutely cant get outside during the workday, consider bringing a few plants to the office. A little greenery could brighten up any bad day.3. Share Your ThoughtsOn a particularly stressful day, you might not be in the mood to talk to anyone. However, sometimes talking to another person about your problems can help you feel better.By externalizing your emotions, youll be able to keep pressure from building up inside and creating big problems later on. If you have a trusted friend at the office, tell them how youre feeling - they might be able to offer some advice or uplifting encouragement.4. Use Healthy Coping MechanismsSome people use unhealthy coping mechanisms like drinking or lashing out to deal with work stress. Though these things might feel good in the moment, they wont help you deal with stress in the long run. Instead, they might end up backfiring and making things worse.If you know you rely on unhealthy coping mechanisms, be aware of that tendency on bad days and look for alternatives.Healthy options like e xercising, keeping a journal and using aromatherapyare all good options to help you through a bad day.5. Compliment a CoworkerEveryone likes to feel appreciated. If nothing seems to be going your way, giving a heartfelt compliment might be the easy mood boost you need to get your day back on track.Like gift-giving, complimenting others can be as rewarding to the person paying the compliment as it is for the person receiving it. You could compliment a coworker on their cool outfit, their work on that last project or an aspect of their personality.If youre lucky, they might compliment you back. And that always feels nice.6. Do Something Nice for SomeonePerforming little acts of kindness can boost your mood and help you feel like youre making an impact through your work. Whether youre doing something for a coworker or a customer, a nice gesture can help give you something positive to remember throughout the day.For example, you might get coffee for a desk mate, write a thank-you card t o a person who helped you recently or walk an elderly customer to their car.7. Listen to Music That Makes You HappyResearch has shownlistening to music can affect your mood. If your office allows it, put on some headphones and turn on your favorite playlist. Listening to music could help entertain you on a slow workday and give you the energy you need to power through.However, be aware some music can be relaxing or uplifting, while other types might increase irritation and aggression. So, make sure to choose your music carefully, picking songs that you already know make you feel good.8. Clean Your DeskNothing sinks productivity like a messy desk. If you have some downtime, consider clearing up your workspace by sorting papers, tossing out old reminders and putting things in the drawers where they belong.A clean desk can save you time, reduce stress and help you remain focused on the task at hand. Plus, a clean start might help you approach the remainder of your day feeling refreshed .9. Optimize Your SystemsIts easy to let the technology you rely on get cluttered and dysfunctional. If you can never find those documents you need on your computer, or if your antivirus has been begging you to update it for the last three months, it might help you to spend some time optimizing your systems.A dysfunctional tech setup can be just as frustrating as a messy desk, so use a slow workday to set yourself up for success. Delete unneeded files, reorganize your desktop and update your computer software if needed.Its amazing how big a difference regular maintenance can make to productivity.10. Make a PlanIf your frustrations at work result from stress or a lack of direction, you can reclaim your day by making a thorough plan of action. By giving yourself some clear goals for the day, you can tackle your workload more efficiently. Plus, youll get the satisfaction of crossing things off your list.Make sure to write down your plan. To-do lists on paper or a whiteboard, for exampl e, put the plan directly in your hands.11. Solve a ProblemSometimes an accomplishment is all you need to turn a bad day into a success. If something in your office is bothering you, brainstorm ideas to fix it.Is the light in the hall flickering? Talk to someone about replacing it. Is there a tedious process you hate? Write a proposal detailing how to streamline it. By coming up with solutions to your biggest work pet peeves, youll feel like youre making significant progress. Plus, youll pave the way for a better work experience tomorrow.12. ansturm an ErrandSometimes you might need to escape the office on a bad day. If business is slow and you can get away for a few minutes, consider running an easy errand. That could involve picking up something from the grocery store, mailing a letter or stepping outside to make that phone call you keep forgetting about.Running a quick errand can not only give you an encouraging sense of accomplishment, but it can also help reduce any stress that might be piling up outside work.13. Learn Something NewIf youre feeling bored or trapped at work, learning something new can be a great way to break you out of stagnation and provide new motivation for the days to come.To learn something new, you might read an article or two, chat with a customer about what they do or ask a coworker to show you how they complete their work. Not only will learning experiences increase your feelings of work satisfaction, but they could also lead to new work opportunities in the future.14. Have a SnackConditions like hunger can affect your mindas well as your body. Though it can be easy to underestimate, hunger can irritate you and even impact your decision-making.Particularly on bad days, its a good idea to pay attention to how your body might be influencing your mood. Grabbing a quick snack might help you get back to work feeling better. If you have time, you could even step out to get doughnuts for the office from your favorite bakery across the str eet.15. Take Time for YourselfIts easy to let stress follow you home after a bad day at work. However, its vital to make sure youre getting enough time to relax to make sure a bad day doesnt turn into chronic stress or other mental health issues.Take care to make a clear distinction between work and play. For example, you could try having an end-of-the-day routine, journaling about your workday and then leaving it behind, or challenging yourself to talk about things other than work when youre with your partner, family and friends.16. Pat Yourself on the BackYou do good work. Though you might not feel confident in your abilities or position all the time, remember youre valuable, no matter what.Try to take note of at least one good thing you accomplish every day. That could be as large as finishing a complicated report, or as small as being early to this mornings meeting. Whatever you choose to congratulate yourself on, make sure you mean it. You deserve some sincere appreciation, eve n if its just from yourself.A slow or stressful day at work can put a damper on anyones mood. However, by taking a few simple steps to take care of yourself, you can make the best of a bad situation and set yourself up for a better workday tomorrow.This article was originally published on PunchedClocks.com.
