Synopsis

Our sense of time is being transformed by technologies that operate at a speed beyond human consciousness. New tools of work erode the boundaries between public and private. The stages of life unfold in ways that are no longer predictable. This text on the role of work in the new economy offers readers six strategies to achieve equilibrium in this new world. Drawing upon hundreds of interviews with men and women adept at navigating life in 24/7, the author shows us how to improvise, how to become partners in change with our employers and how to customize our lives and our careers to suit our individual needs as they change over time.

Media Reviews
This book offers realistic strategies and proven principles that will not only help you find more time, but will teach you how to spend it on what matters most. Dr. Stephen R. Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People The change that engulfs the world of work has morphed into a 'perfect storm.' Alas, there are no 'perfect answers' for staying off the shoals. Yet in Thriving in 24/7 Sally Helgesen has given us a profoundly original and eminently useful map to this extraordinary new territory. From cover to cover, this is a remarkable book. Tom Peters, author of The Brand You 50
