Love and Money: Can't I Have Both?

Why are the qualities it takes to succeed at work often in direct conflict with the qualities it takes to succeed in love? How can we overcome this? Richard Bolles, author of What Color is Your Parachute?, and Warren Farrell, author of Why Men Earn More, partner in this highly interactive workshop that teaches you practical tools for envisioning success, updating your vision in the face of change, and finding your optimal balance between professional and personal endeavors.

This workshop will review the 25 work-life choices made by women and men that lead to men earning more and women having more fulfilling lives. Discover what men and women can learn from each other to make smart trade-offs that benefit both yourself and your loved ones.

Personal Evolution, Professional Revolution

You will learn:

  • Which new fields and non-traditional careers and lifestyles are expected to emerge in the next decade.
  • Transitions that are likely to occur in established fields.
  • How to coordinate your evolution (including your health) with their evolution.
  • The skills and mindset you need to create a job rather than just find one.
  • How to determine the balance among work, love, family and spirituality that creates success for you.
