Thanks for contributing. Well your right the border between personal & professional life will be one of the major issue in the future. However we can’t blame the technology for that… Andre Comte-Sponville was saying in ‘Le capitalisme est-il moral ?’ that technology is neither moral nor immoral but that technology is amoral. Technology is not making any choices for us, we have to make them: career or family…

Btw I will be in Lyon for xmas, will you be there as well?

Your post is interesting, and reminds of an article I read a few weeks ago in a human ressources magazine.

This article was pointing the fact that these new technologies of information and communication, such as Blackberries …, were having harmful consequences on manager’s private life.
Indeed, many managers have the feeling that their work continues when they’re at home, during the week end,…

Who or what is to blame ? The boss ? The new technologies ? Probably. The manager himself ? Probably, too… In fact, I believe that many managers hardly disconnect from their work (I don’t have this problem !). They ask themselves : what will happen if my boss tries to phone me on a Saturday afternoon but I’m not here to answer back ? What will be the consequences on my career ?

I think it’s a true issue for the future. With these new technologies, does a real frunteer between work and private life does exist ?
