WORK/LIFE BALANCE
Live a full and balanced life.

>>> All work and no play? Never.

You will find that much of our success as a firm is directly related to the high caliber of employees who choose Olsson Associates. Our employees are smart, visionary people, and that makes it fun to come to work each day.

But enjoying and being successful at work each day is just one facet of living a full and productive life.

Time to play and be rejuvenated is important, too. There is always some company-sponsored event to look forward to—a Royals game in Kansas City, a Rockies game in Denver, a friendly softball, volleyball, bowling, kickball, or dodge ball competition, a lake cruise in Minneapolis, or indoor office golf tournaments.

We also come together through our Community Builders program, which encourages employees to become involved in their communities on a deeper level—by serving on boards, participating in fundraisers, and joining professional and civic organizations.



>>> How do you find balance in your life between the pressures of school, work, family, and friends?
I don’t know if I have fully conquered this yet, but I get better day by day. I have learned to prioritize things, and that has helped me keep a balance. I think my body also tells me when I have studied too much and need to relax or go exercise. Over the course of three years of school, I have learned what I can or can’t handle. I have learned my limitations, which has also helped me create a better balance.
