What do Michelle Obama, Bruce Springsteen and Sheryl Sandberg have in common? According to a new book by Stewart D. Friedman , founding director of the Wharton Work/Life Integration Project and a practice professor of management, each has developed the skills to integrate their life and work successfully. In Leading the Life You Want , Friedman profiles six people who he says embody these necessary skills — being real, being whole, and being innovative — and helps readers to begin to apply these skills and strategies in their own lives.
