Your Top Employees are Working Parents
When was the last time you looked at your culture and policies to make sure they stay?
If you’re part of an HR or People team committed to building an inclusive culture that supports working parents, I’d love to hear from you.
Working parents need more from you than just time off work.
You probably don’t need me to tell you this —
40% of working moms will leave the workforce or take a reduced role to balance care for family. (US Dept of Labor & Pew Research Center)
Even though more companies are offering paid parental leave, it doesn’t matter how generous your policies are if your employees don’t feel safe taking leave.
73% of working fathers feel there is little support for fathers and 21% fear they would lose their jobs if they took a full paternity leave. (HBR, “Why Workplaces Need to Be Fairer to Working Dads”)
Let’s create an inclusive space for working parents.
We can work together to build a culture that supports the working parents in your organization by:
Assessing current parental leave benefits against best practices
Surveying the working parents in your organization to get a true pulse on their needs
Offering parental leave transition coaching for new parents to aid in their transition in and out of work
Building internal communities and ERGs to support working parents
Pinpointing cultural shifts throughout the organization and leadership for creating a more supportive and inclusive environment for working parents

“Jess is kind and honest, and she was able to simultaneously support and challenge me as I worked through things - a rare combination that is so valuable in a coach!
I gained a lot of confidence in my own thinking as well as strategies to better take action or communicate in a way that feels authentic to me.”

“Jess helped me reflect on where I was currently at, align my efforts (namely, mindset) to where I want to be in the future, and find some self-compassion in the process.
She asked me powerful questions at just the right moments, which led to clarity and encouragement I wouldn’t have otherwise had access to.”
