Personal Expectations and Your Workload*

Our work can be very rewarding and fulfilling. There is a certain level of satisfaction gained when we solve a difficult problem, help a customer, or finish a particular task or project. Of course our work helps us pay our bills and maintain our livelihood too—all of which is a good thing. With that said, most of us also want to maintain a life outside of work; one in which we spend time with family and friends, have the opportunity to pursue our hobbies and interests, and have the chance to relax and not think about work. We desire a balance between work and our personal life. This course will help you compare your expectations against what is truly realistic for your job. Once we do this, we can identify how to create the right balance, thus ensuring both our work and personal commitments can be met. By completing this course, you will be able to check your personal expectations regarding your workload and job requirements. This course has been approved for 1 hour of PDU credit from PMI (Project Management Institute).
