Careers and the Workplace Quick Thought - Should we Expect Employees to Always be All-Stars? — www.mikemcbrideonline.com Over the weekend, the wife and I had BBC World News on the TV while we both were catching up with the virtual world in our living room, and they were doing an investigation into maternity and paternity leave in European countries as opposed to the US. I'm not getting into that debate, but there was a point where they were interviewing a Dutch mother about her career, and the leave she took both pre and post-birth. What made my wife and I both stop what we were doing was her admission that she didn't see why it was necessary to always "excel" at her career, but that just being OK was enough. She didn't consider being outstanding at her job to be anything that was all that important in the grand scheme of things.
