The academic community is buzzing following the publication of a significant new study by Mrs. Lakshmi V.R., Professor and Head of the Department at a local institution, and Director of Research at WIRAS.
The research, summarized in the announcement, is focused on the critical topic of Work-Life Balance of Educators and its profound impact on both job satisfaction and institutional success. The study, titled "Work-Life Balance of Educators is Aided and Hindered and its Effect on Job Satisfaction and Success of the Institution," suggests that while institutions aim to support their staff, teachers often face immense pressure.
"The reasonable selection of time for hard work, coupled with adequate relaxation and effective family support, are crucial for sustainable professional growth," noted the research summary displayed on the poster.
Mrs. Lakshmi V.R.'s work is expected to provide valuable insights for educational administrators, prompting them to review and implement policies that better support the well-being and productivity of their teaching faculty. Her findings emphasize that a balanced life is not merely a personal benefit but a foundational requirement for institutional triumph.
The achievement has been widely celebrated, with the WIRAS Directorate of Research issuing a special congratulatory note recognizing her continuous contributions to the field.
