While you are at work,
your child becomes ill at school and you are the only who is able to pick him
up. As you rush out of the office, does your manager say goodbye with a frown
or with words of empathy? You are managing a person who has left early every
day for the last two weeks to take care of an elderly parent. How have your
responded to him in terms of his challenges balancing his family life and the
work that you need him to be doing?
Employers tackle a myriad of issues each day, from the challenges of single
parents, issues faced by caretakers of elderly relatives, to the varying needs
of the ever emerging multicultural work force. The more flexible the employer
is, the more like he is to recruit and retain quality employees. Mary Lynn
Fayoumi, President and CEO of The Management Association of Illinois will
address these issues at the Women In Business Roundtable at their October 12,
2005 luncheon. She will also discuss:

employees

determine if you have your needs are being met
