Abstract: Abstract The task of reconciling the roles of work and family life has been like the Middle East of the field of management and organizational behaviour — the issues seem to be perennial and intractable. Although we do not claim to have the answer to work—life peace, we would like to examine a lens for viewing the terrain that we see as having some potential: looking at the issues in terms of the whole person. What if we took the whole person seriously?
