Reviews
"Work-life balance sounds great on paper. In practice it's about promises made to those we value most, and ourselves, too. How easy it is not to fulfil those promises. Nadim Saad's book offers sensible and practical solutions for working parents, and some great tips for bringing up happy, balanced kids." -- John Lees (author of How to Get a Job You Love)
"With more children than ever being brought up in households where both parents work, there is a real need for practical resources that help working parents enjoy stress-free time with their kids. The Working Parents' Guide is clearly-laid-out and it is full of tips and tools that will help parents balance work and family time successfully." -- Tanith Carey (author of Mum Hacks, Taming the Tiger Parent and Girls,Uninterrupted)
"The Working Parents' Guide is an invaluable resource for working parents who want to improve their work-life balance and have a more enjoyable family life. The parallels between leadership and parenting made in the book are inspiring and bring great awareness of our role as parents and leaders. I also really enjoyed the leadership quotes that illustrate each technique in the book. I highly recommend it." -- Jerome Ballarin (Founder and Chairman of the Observatory of Work-Life balance and Parenthood in Business)
"A great practical guide, full of easy to apply tips that clearly links what we do in our leadership roles with how we manage our children" -- Kirstie Sneyd (Executive coach and Parentgym Facilitator)
"Nadim Saad has created a well structured, user friendly and most importantly, effective manual that gets to the heart of the issues that impact real families. Bite-sized chapters and an accessible style of writing will enable parents to dip in and out according to the particular needs of their situation and without feeling preached to (something no parent wants). This is a book that will certainly be informing my own work with families." -- Gary Leboff (Performance Psychologist and author of Dare)
"As a parent, educator and adviser on strategic leadership, this book really resonated with me. The self-leadership concepts are relevant when parenting and also in our own development as grown-ups." -- Michael Kouly (CEO and President of the Cambridge Institute for Global Leadership)
"This book is excellent and a must read: the only book needed for both the home and the office." -- Kristina Landa (Naturopathic Doctor)
