Our priority is to understand your organisation and the specific issues that your working parents are facing.
As an employer, you recognise the stress of the working/parenting juggle. You know that to get the best from your employees you need to support them in facing these challenges.
For example, coordinating the leaving and collecting of children at childcare is an issue. Members of your team that are juggling the childcare run and their own commute arrive at work stressed, and leave feeling guilty. Those that aren't range from the supportive to the openly irritated.
We can help you address this with our 'Starting and Ending the Day Effectively' workshops.
Sometimes you can't put your finger on what the issue is, you just know that there is one. We can help you to identify what is happening and from there work out a way forward.
If you prefer we can can tailor make a programme specific to your organisation.
Employers benefit from:
- A more effective workforce
- Creative thinking and self management skills that can be transferred to other areas of working life
- A co-designed plan for sustainability
- An internal peer support structure that extends beyond our time in your organisation
- Being heard and feeling supported
- Strategies for coping with being a working parent
- An employer that doesn't shy away from the reality of combining working and parenting
