Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
For decades, the movement to strike a healthy work-life balance focused on women. But a new generation of young men is adding a Y chromosome to the debate. Millenial men now want to share both the bread-winning and the child-rearing, and in fact report higher levels of work-life conflict than do women. Kojo examines the concerns of young working men and looks at how employers are beginning to respond.
