The Executive Compass, Mastering the Work-Life Equilibrium
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sanjiv Anand, Chairman, Cedar Management Consulting International
In this episode, I speak candidly about the challenge of work–life balance for senior executives. Over the years, I have seen many leaders express regret about not spending enough time with their families. Success at work should not come at the cost of personal fulfilment.
I share practical disciplines I believe in — working smart by prioritising what truly matters, delegating effectively, and limiting distractions such as unnecessary emails. Leaders must make conscious choices: get home on time, protect weekends, and take full holiday entitlement. For those who travel frequently, plan schedules to maximise family time and disconnect when you can.
Most importantly, do not let devices control your life. Leadership is not only about serving shareholders — it is also about honouring the moments that truly matter.
