Working together on the Masters in Systems Practice

Robin Asby and Penny Marrington show that it is possible to find work/life balance in many different ways apart from the obvious one of spending less time in the office and more with the family.

As well as sharing their home lives as a married couple, they also share a Senior Lectureship in the Systems Group at the Open University.
