Expressing Work-Family Memorable Messages With Coworkers

• In Event: Work-Life Balance and Flexible Work

Abstract

We examine work-family conflict through the lens of memorable messages expressed to co-workers. We identified themes associated with those messages under the categories of satisfaction or dissatisfaction with work-family conflict. We describe specific themes under those areas and discuss implications those memorable messages have for identity creation and organizational culture.
