******************************** IKEA: Furnishing Good Employee Benefits Along with Dining Room Sets http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/index.cfm?fa=viewfeature&id=959 As a rising IKEA executive in the late 1990s, Pernille Spiers-Lopez was charging from one task to another when a sudden chest pain signaled a possible heart attack. Lying in the ambulance, she thought to herself, “Oh, so this is success.” As it turned out, it wasn’t a heart attack but a sign of stress – a signal she needed to balance life and work the way she had been telling everyone else to do. Spiers-Lopez, president of IKEA North America, spoke at Wharton recently on the importance of worker-friendly policies for all employees, including herself.
