Focus on Workplace Flexibility

Today I will be reporting live from the Focus on Workplace Flexibility Conference at Georgetown Law in Washington, D. C.

Follow along and ask questions – you can read position papers at http://workplaceflexibility.org and see highlights of the conference as-it-happens via my twitter feed at http://twitter.com/womenplanetsci.

These researchers, academics, and business leaders are here to make a difference. Today, I’m excited to be in their company.

Is it important? You tell me. Comment, tweet, or send me a note. Does workplace flexibility matter to you? or are you ok with working 8-5 M-F 50-51 weeks a year, with no breaks aside from lunch, regardless of physical, social, emotional, volunteer, travel, or research-related needs?
