Harvard expert reveals why ignoring common career advice leads to happier workers
Harvard Business School professor Ranjay Gulati argues that the concept of "work-life balance" is misleading and counterproductive. Instead, he suggests seeking harmony between work and personal life, finding meaning in what you do, and creating continuity between your personal and professional routines. Research shows that those who find their work meaningful are more likely to receive raises and promotions, and they tend to be more resilient, motivated, and hardworking. By merging personal and professional lives, individuals can achieve a happier and more successful career.
