SUMMARY:ABCP Webinar: Constant juggling? An interactive and research-informed webinar on managing work-life boundaries for academics
DESCRIPTION:Title\nConstant juggling? An interactive and research-informed webinar on managing work-life boundaries for academics \nSpeaker\nDr Mengyi Xu (徐梦艺博士)\, Assistant Professor in Human Resource Management\, University of Birmingham\, UK \nChair\nProfessor Lynda Jiwen Song (宋继文教授)\, Professor in Management\, Leeds University\, UK \nLanguage\nThe talk will be delivered in English. \nAbstract\nThis webinar aims to share academics’ experiences of managing their work-life boundaries from recent research and lived experience\, and collectively explore individual strategies and tactics for work-life boundary management and managerial implications of hybrid working in the Higher Education (HE) sector. COVID-19 has accelerated existing trends towards the greater digitalisation and virtualisation of how the HE institutions are operated\, and the knowledge work is done. Hybrid working\, comprising a mixture of office-based and remote working\, is now a firmly established option for many employers. While it is understood that the resulting blurring of work and home domains poses threats to staff wellbeing\, health and longer-term productivity\, the problem has consistently been framed as individual responsibility with the result that less attention has been paid to what employers can and should also do to support staff. \nWe will start by sharing some recent research and lived experiences on the work-life boundary experiences of academics during and after the pandemic. Then participants will be instructed to take an assessment designed to identify their boundary style and its pros and cons. Participants will then be allocated to a breakout room to share and use the results of this assessment to develop strategies and tactics for effective work-life boundary management. The webinar will end with a debrief from the discussions where participants will share the good practices and techniques of effective work-life boundary management\, and critically reflect upon the importance of work-life boundary control for improving productivity and well-being. \nIntended participants and admission criteria for the participants\nAll ABCP members and friends. \nIf you are interested in understanding work-life boundaries ahead of the webinar\, you can read through the following article and do the work-life boundary style assessment and have their results handy. \nKossek\, E.
