Stewart Friedman, organizational psychologist at The Wharton
School, and Alyssa Westring, associate professor at DePaul
University’s Driehaus College of Business, say it’s a mistake for a
working parent to think of career and home life as competing
interests that have to be balanced. Their research shows how many
leadership skills apply to parenting, and vice versa. The
professors explain how individuals can stop making tradeoffs and
instead find sustainable ways to advance their careers and also
parent more effectively. Friedman and Westring are the authors of
the book "Parents Who Lead: The Leadership Approach You Need to
Parent with Purpose, Fuel Your Career, and Create a Richer Life."
