Work Life Balance Research

This is a short term, quick turnaround, research project. The consultant will be responsible for doing research to determine the 75 hottest topics related to work life balance. The research will be submitted in the form of a compiled report that lists the topics along with a rating. References and and a short (2-3 sentences) description of the topic should also be included. A Word document has been attached to this project and provides a template to be used in compiling the final report. Please note that the entry in the document is just a sample. The entry may end up in the final compiled report but it should not automatically be included just because it is listed. Please note that completing this project WILL NOT be as simple as doing a Google search and plugging in the results. We are looking for topics that seem to reapper over and over again, thus qualifying them as hot topics. The frequency with which the topic appears in the research searches should determine its relevance to this project and its rating. The following scale should be used when rating the topics: • Topic appears at least 5 times – Rating is a 3 • Topic appears at least 15 times – Rating is a 2 • Topic appears at least 25 time – Rating is a 1 We are trying to get an idea of what the hottest topics are related to Work Live Balance and this project will help us determine next steps for a larger research project. *** Only bidders who can complete this project by 5:00 pm CST(USA) Friday 12/30/05 should respond.
