Work-life balance and sustainable success

Between increasing professional demands, omnipresent screens and hyperconnection, work-life balance has become a real issue of mental health, efficiency and quality of life. Here's some practical advice on how to achieve lasting harmony.

Why work/life balance is crucial

According to a study by Malakoff Humanis, 48% of working people in France feel that their professional life encroaches too much on their personal life. This imbalance can lead to fatigue, chronic stress, loss of motivation and impact on personal relationships.

Conversely, a good balance improves concentration, fosters commitment and stimulates creativity - essential qualities in all sectors, including digital andhospitality.

Tips for better organizing your work/life balance when teleworking

Define clear time slots

Setting precise working hours and sticking to them allows you to compartmentalize your days more effectively. This is even more essential for freelancers, teleworkers or students on distance learning courses, especially e-learning courses.

Learning to say no

Accepting all requests often leads to overload. Prioritizing, delegating and sometimes refusing an extra task means preserving mental energy for what really matters.

Work/life balance tools and tips for everyday life

  • Use time management tools (Notion, Trello, Google Calendar)
  • Schedule breaks, even short ones, with the Pomodoro tool (25 minutes of concentration + 5 minutes break)
  • Disconnect after 7pm (notifications off, computer closed)
  • Off-screen activities (sports, reading, going out)

At Crews, training courses are designed to fit in with learners' day-to-day reality: live online courses from 9am to 5pm with a one-hour lunch break, small groups, individualized coaching and personal development.

Work-life balance and hybrid work

Remote or hybrid working offers greater flexibility, but also requires a high degree of discipline. In France, over 30% of the working population now telecommute (INSEE 2023), with highly contrasting results according to profile.

The important thing is to create rituals: fixed hours, dedicated space, regular breaks, clear disconnection... all elements that contribute to a better balance.

Training to work remotely for a better work/life balance

At Crews, all training is delivered in synchronous Online , a unique format that effectively prepares for telecommuting and hybrid working practices. Classes are held via videoconferencing, with live professional speakers, and small classes to encourage participation.

Each session functions like a professional meeting: camera on, active speaking, collaborative tools, time management and deliverables. In this way, students develop reflexes that they will use in the workplace, whether in a remote, hybrid or regular videoconferencing context.

This enables them to gain in autonomy, while structuring their days: an invaluable asset for maintaining a good balance between personal and professional life. The programs (from Bac+3 to Bac+5) are designed to leave time for personal projects, work or family: everything that's extracurricular.

Indeed, once the class day is over, students can go about their business and organize themselves as they wish in terms of homework and project deliveries, allowing them to move around wherever they like, even during their class days.

We also offer all our professional training courses Online, although it is also possible to run them In-person. Our trainers are chosen for their professionalism and skills, rather than their geographical location.

Find your daily balance

A good work/life balance is not based on a magic formula, but on a set of concrete habits, the right decisions and the right training. Crews helps each learner build a project that respects his or her priorities.
