    Website review: The main driver for this site is to provide tools, training and insight for employers in order for them to build their respective work places into businesses that provided a work life balance with engaged workers.

    The key audiences here are employers who are looking to improve their worker engagement.

    Information available on this site does provide credible tools for employers to leverage. The challenge is that it focuses on just the employers and what they can do to make their employees more productive.

    While the site has references to key topics like flexibility, job sharing, wellness, it was all focused on making employees more productive, while at the same time keeping the company whole. This by itself, challenges the credibility of the product.

    The end focus overall was a business trying to build a business in selling workplace productivity under the guise of establishment of work life balance. Sharing where the company can actually save money by executing some of the items noted. One of the key elements that were a focus was improvement of employee engagement. With briefings that noted when employees were engaged, they were willing to provide more efficiency in the work place. Now, those items noted are key items in driving employee engagement, but don't believe that this site has the employee needs true at its base. The focus is to sell product to companies looking to garner the best employees while implementing programs that in some cases may only provide the image of work life balance. This links directly to our course this semester as a highlight of the challenges at Amerco and other companies who want to drive the best efficiency, while at the same time ensuring they aren't over exposed.
