This week, EO joins with the Global Entrepreneurship Network in celebrating Global Entrepreneurship Week (#GEW2017), which credits the importance and growing impact of entrepreneurship, and features an international calendar of events and partnerships. From 13–19 November 2017, we’ll share exclusive content designed to inspire and inform every entrepreneur—whether you’re in start-up mode or you’re a battle-scarred founder. We believe in the power of learning to grow. We believe in the potential of entrepreneurship as a global force for change. Celebrate with us by visiting the EO Octane blog every day this week!

Achieving a work-life balance is an age-old pursuit, made even more elusive for today’s entrepreneurs and more complex with stereotypes that exist in both the boardroom and the home. Today, we take a magnifying glass to the topic, confronting the realities of today’s workplace while gathering tips for maintaining a healthy balance.
