He Works/She Works - Successful Strategies for Working Couples (Paperback)

This practical guide for working couples helps them eliminate power struggles, and deal with issues that can disrupt both their jobs and relationships. The book contains step-by-step action solutions and real-life examples to help working couples sort through money/salary issues, job relocation, commuter marriages, business travel and other problems that may arise in the relationship. It explains how to reduce anger, stress, self-sabotage, depression and burnout at work and in a relationship. The book offers strategies to help readers: draft a family "mission statement" that recognizes each partner's unique strengths; eliminate manipulative behaviour and ego problems; be as smart in planning their relationship as they are in their careers. It also examines both the female and male perspective on various issues, so neither sex feels left out.
