Redfish Survey Work-Life Tips
In December we looked at some tips for people to achieve work-life balance and put forth our own survey. The results of the Redfish survey (as of the first week of January) are:
| 1 = Not Important , 2 = Somewhat Useful , 3 = Important , 4 = Very Important , 5 = Most Important | |
| Answer | Rating Score* |
| Do a Job You Love | 3.9 |
| Set Your Priorities for both Work and Play | 3.9 |
| Set Work Boundaries / Respect Your Private Time | 3.9 |
| Be Healthy (Get Enough Sleep, Exercise, Eat Healthy) | 3.8 |
| Schedule Personal Time Each Day | 3.7 |
| Take More Vacations and Time Off | 3.6 |
| Get Organized, Focus on Priorities | 3.5 |
| Focus on One Thing at a Time | 2.7 |
| Have Lunch in Bangkok Every So Often | 2.5 |
| Get a Life Coach or Mentor | 2.1 |
*The Rating Score is the weighted average calculated by dividing the sum of all weighted ratings by the number of total responses.
Comments
- Bangkok?, how about the French Riviera or a villa in the Swiss Alps? These I would have said “Most Important”
- LOL, like the last one.
- I believe that real time off (not when you are checking emails and taking calls all the time) is very important.
- Be flexible when necessary, but keep the balance.
What do you think?
This survey is still open. If you want to weigh in, please do.
