EOS Worldwide®, creators of the Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS®), now offers work life balance coaching for business owners. According to the business management experts at EOS Worldwide, achieving a healthy work life balance is a common challenge among today’s small to mid-size business owners who are working hard to stay competitive. Don Tinney, Certified EOS Implementer™ said, “Being overworked and over stressed is common for business owners, but it doesn’t have to be that way. When you spend too much of your life focused on work, you can get burnt out and this makes it impossible to focus on both your personal and professional goals. Learning how to maintain a healthy balance between work and other meaningful priorities is essential for the success of any business owner, and when you can pass these skills on down to your staff, that just increases the benefits.”
