The document discusses work-life flexibility as a strategic lever for organizations facing an "always on" and "do more with less" business environment. It notes that work-life flexibility can help companies work better and smarter, reduce costs, improve customer service, manage talent, promote individual well-being, and increase environmental sustainability. While many CFOs recognize the broad impacts, few companies treat work-life flexibility as a formal strategy. The document argues companies need to close the awareness-action gap by developing a compelling vision, ensuring leadership buy-in, and making flexibility a priority across the organization.
