"Flexibility benefits everyone -- not just working parents," says Stein. "Trusting your employees to do their work and giving them the encouragement, resources, and support to do it in a way that acknowledges their nonwork life produces better bottom-line results for your company -- and far happier and more loyal employees. No question."
"The tide is turning," she says. "No one used to care about the 'whole' employee. Today, employers care out of fear. They are afraid for the future of their companies. They are afraid of losing good people, and they're afraid of what will happen to our country as we begin to neglect the well-being of our children."
