  With The Custom-Fit Workplace, Blades and Fondas offer an  indispensable handbook for business professionals that will  transform the way we work, highlighting proven best  practices for breaking free from the old, inflexible, 40-hour  schedule. The authors know that change is afoot in businesses  across America and throughout the world: Dual earning  households continue to grow in record numbers; men  and women are taking time off from their careers to take care  of children or aging parents and are struggling to find a way  back in; our 24/7 work culture is placing an undue burden on  working professionals; and workers everywhere are struggling to  balance career and personal lives while making ends meet. At the  same time, businesses hit hard by the economic crisis are looking  for creative ways to retain their talent rather than laying off  people to make their numbers. We are, in short, standing on the  precipice of a workplace revolution, and The Custom-Fit  Workplace will be the definitive roadmap that explains how to  navigate the changing landscape.   Featuring compelling stories of companies like Jet Blue,  Ernst & Young, Best Buy, Deloitte & Touche, and the  University of California, the book will profile strategies that are  already gaining traction in workplaces across the country, such  as:    New twists on traditional flexible hours and part-time work  strategies  Work from home and staffing entirely at-home workers  Results-Only Work Environments (ROWEs)  Babies at Work programs  "On ramp" and "Off ramp" opportunities.    Individuals will learn creative ways to integrate their work  requirements with their life obligations, while managers will be  persuaded to adopt these flexible work strategies to improve their  bottom line by tapping into the power of their most important  asset: their people. Every reader will finish the book convinced of  the place of flexible work arrangements in the twenty-first-century  workplace, and walk away with an expanded tool set to use in  his or her own work environment.  An eminently practical and engaging researched-based book,  The Custom-Fit Workplace will provide individuals and  employers everywhere the tools they need to be successful and happy  both at work and in their other life pursuits.
