Blending – A Strategy for Success

We do not believe in the notion of work/life balance; that notion implies one is a sacrifice for the other. Blending is a better idea.

Blending is about finding ways to satisfy as many of the Seven Fs as possible in all our daily activities, personal or professional. Blending is being aware of how the Seven Fs are alive in us at every moment – not just at home or at work. It's about how our professional life makes us a better person – and how our personal life makes us a better leader.
