Tell Us About Your Great Boss

    Posted October 16th, 2007 by Donna

    Jim Johnson, the owner of Johnson Moving and Storage and a self-described conservative, also knows firsthand about the benefits of a family-friendly workplace.  After attending a talk by Joan Williams, author of Unbending Gender, Jim decided that his company would define individual jobs according to goals rather than just by the hours worked and where the job was done.  Now, a quarter of his employees are off-site or virtual workers.  Many others work flexible hours to fit their family or personal schedules.  Jim's company now enjoys low rates of turnover and a higher quality workforce.   

    Do you have a story of a great boss or a family-friendly policy or practice that really works for you?
