Bayview Medical Center October 30, 2007 Kathleen Beauchesne, MSW, MBA, PhD, LCSW-C Goals for Today • Gain an understanding of work/life issues from and individual and systems perspective • Provide an overview of leadership and management skills required for today’s workforce – Traditional supervisor/Integrated supervisor – Old Workplace/New Workplace – Leadership skills for flexibility and support • Increase knowledge of resources that can be helpful – Imagine the Consequences – Signs and Symptoms/Dos and Don’ts of Effective Intervention – Nine Key Steps in Early Effective Intervention What Has Changed? • Technology and globalization • Employment, wages and benefits • Aging boomers • Diverse workforces • Childbearing and fertility rates • Marriage and divorce • Changes in family structures • Women’s labor force participation • Speeded up lives and overwork Work-Life Issues: The Evidence
• 87% of employees go home to care for a family member every
night (NSCW, 1997) • As the population ages, more and more employees are providing elder care for relatives. In 2002, 35% of workers, men and women alike, say they provided regular care for a parent or in-law over 65 in the past year, helping them do things that they could not otherwise do themselves (NSCW, 2003) • Fathers in dual-earner couples today spend 42 minutes more doing household chores on workdays than fathers in 1977. Work-Life Issues: The Evidence • Mothers have reduced their time by approximately the same amount. – So the combined time that spouses in dual-earner couples with children spend on household chores has not changed over 25 years-what has changed is how family work is divided (NSCW, 2003). • Employees with families report significantly higher levels of interference between their jobs and their family lives than employees 25 years ago (45% vs. 34% report this "some" or "a lot"). – And men with families report higher levels of interference between their jobs and their family lives than women in the same situation. (NSCW, 2003) Work-Life Issues: The Evidence • One out of three workers is experiencing one or more symptoms of clinical depression, and coincidentally, it is the same number of people who are feeling over-loaded (NSCW, 2003) • Employees reporting significantly better mental health have the most work-life supports in place and they experience: – More control over schedule – More access to flexible work arrangements – More supportive managers and supervisors – More supportive organizational culture • 77% of those who experience their culture as being supportive say it is highly likely they will still be working at the company next year, compared to 41% who don’t Working Conditions: The Evidence • Flexible and supportive supervisors are critical to recruitment and retention • Greater work/life supports (flexibility, respect, supervisor support, supportive work culture) are more strongly associated with positive work outcomes than fringe benefits – Job satisfaction – Commitment • Loyalty • Willing to work harder than required to help employer succeed – Retention • More likely to stay with employer for at least the next year Multiple Roles Across the Life Span
• Imagine your life as a wheel
– Divide your wheel into pieces so that it represents a picture of your life right now – Make a list of the roles that make up your life now – Where do the roles conflict? – What about your wheel of life in your 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, etc? • Think about the wheels of your colleagues/subordinates/staff – How do these roles affect the way we work? – How do these different roles affect the way we relate to each other? – How do our wheels affect the achievement of our work goals as well as our personal goals? Supervisors: Old Models/New Models Traditional Supervisor Integrated Supervisor • Authoritarian • Facilitator and coach • Very much in charge. • Flexible and supportive • “Command and control” • Relational practice type of manager • Employees are human • Tries hard to keep beings with full lives everything under control outside of work and • Expects employees to important personal leave their home-life responsibilities to handle issues outside the office door Working Conditions: Old Workplace/New Workplace Old Workplace New Workplace • Focus on work redesign • Jobs come with two choices – Quality part-time jobs connected to – Full-time (long hours and career tracks benefits) – Sequence in and out work • Focus on the physical plant – Part-time, limited, casual – Ergonomics (short hours, low pay, no – Physics benefits) – Design better buildings • Acting individually places • Diversity in leadership careers at risk • Flexible hours • Patterns of limited coverage • Redesign benefits – Access to paid-time off • Health care and pension – Generous maternity leave policies systems are in trouble – Health care • Two choices of work/life – Pensions benefits – Work/life benefits – Support the ideal worker • Employee voice – Work/life councils – Provide flexibility Leadership Skills for Flexibility • Old Skills from the Industrial Revolution • New Skills – Complex environment – Knowledge and service workers – Education is a necessity – Work involves hearts and minds • New skills include: – Coach, empower, enable, collaborate, support team work, trust, manage results, manage change, manage partnerships, behave as an adult towards adult staff Reinventing Work • A systems approach • One person’s problem may be experienced by many people • The problem affects not only the individual, but the organization, the family, the community, the school, etc. – The case of Ken • Ask yourself: How can organizations move beyond policies and programs and address work- life integrations in a more systemic manner that is of benefit to both the business and its employees?
– What is the new strategy to take us into the future?
A Systems Model: The Tools
• Identify and assess assumptions
• Evaluate habitual work processes • Paradigm shifts • Managing up • Create new stakeholders
• The goal is to address both individual and
business needs. Identify and Assess Assumptions • Assumptions about work and the ideal worker influence our ability to link work and personal lives and achieve organizational goals • Assumptions about work may be counter- productive to the achievement of departmental and institutional goals Assumptions Exercise • Bob Jones and Joe Smith are both vice presidents at the same organization. – Bob takes a week vacation. He takes his fax machine, cell phone, and laptop computer with him. He calls the office daily and reads and responds to his e-mail. – Joe takes a two week vacation. He takes his fishing pole with him. He leaves an emergency number with his assistant who never calls him. • What are the traditional assumptions implied in this story? • Which vice president is more valued by the company? Examining Work Processes • Examining habitual work processes in a team • Customizing jobs • Effective communication processes • Duplication of work • Flexible work schedules • Cyclical work schedules • Assumptions about work processes • Breaking down silos Create New Stakeholders • Include the family as a stakeholder – Families prepare us for work – Families affect our ability to work each day – Family events can rejuvenate us – Family experiences can help us feel motivated and energized • Multiple roles as human beings Paradigm Shifts • Paradigms provide rules, frameworks and models for doing our work – People deeply believed these ways were the best • Leaders or pioneers help paradigms shift • Ask yourself: What do I believe is impossible but if it could be done would fundamentally improve our work?

His new rank requires him to produce more publishable material and teach more classes. The combination of the added demands of the job, his clinical load and the pressures in his personal life have resulted in several emotional outbursts directed at colleagues and students. Lately, Phil has begun to miss his classes. Imagine the Consequences…. • Jane is a nurse who has worked with George for a long time. She has started arriving later and later for work, and when questioned she talks about how stressful her job is. Today, she is over an hour late returning from lunch. Her coworkers have been covering for her absences. George just heard through the office grapevine that Jane is taking care of her frail, elderly mother.
