Moving Mountains

This report summarises the findings arising from a series of semi-structured interviews conducted with leading edge work-life balance employers in the City of London in May 2006. It builds on research we carried out in 2001 and reported as Quality of Life in the City. The purpose of our current research was to identify a hypothetical ‘road map’ of the journey from being an organisation focussing on Human Resources policies and legislative compliance when considering work-life balance (a Stage 2 organisation), to becoming a Stage 3 organisation where hearts and minds have been won and the culture truly supports work-life balance for everyone.
