Dual-Career Couples Are Forcing Firms to Rethink Talent Management

Jennifer Petriglieri, an assistant professor of organizational
behavior at INSEAD, asks company leaders to consider whether they
really need to relocate their high-potential employees or make them
travel so much. She says moving around is particularly hard on
dual-career couples. And if workers can't set boundaries around
mobility and flexibility, she argues, firms lose out on talent.

the Dual-Career Couple.”
