“I have different plans for that project Tom. But it is a good idea. I will consider it. We

“I have already spoken to her Dan. Her Performance Review and Enhancement Plan
(PREP) is also ready with me. As the secondary reviewer of PREP, you can meet her and take
it from there. What do you think?”
“Good idea Tom. Can I see her later today or tomorrow? I will free up my calendar as this
is particularly important. Please have her set it up with Anita. I will brief her.”
“Coming back to you, how are other things Tom. How is the conversion of knowledge to
learning?”
“I think I am making good progress Dan. In fact, even Amy told me that she has noticed a
change but unfortunately, it is too late for her.”
“The only hiccup is work-life balance as I have been spending a lot of time assimilating my
knowledge even at home. Tara feels ignored and somewhat upset. We will get over in due
course, I guess.”
Dan gave his best knowledge-based smile and explained what Ron had told him last Friday.
He also shared his personal learnings.
“Tom, it is not how much time we spend at work or home, but how we spend that time!
You can be at home 24x7 but if you are constantly thinking about work, you will still have no
time for Tara and yourself? Result, work-life imbalance.”
