Manage episode 406061806 series 3532566
"One in four working parents have moved jobs because they didn't feel they could continue with their career with that employer with children in tow."
This week we are delighted to welcome award-winning Social Enterprise CEO and fellow podcast host of Big Careers, Small Children, Verena Hefti MBE, FRSA, founder of Leaders Plus.
Founded to help parents stop having to choose between being a good parent and having a fulfilling career, Leaders Plus is a social enterprise working with individuals during maternity leave, shared parental leave, and beyond, supporting them to progress in their careers alongside parenthood, and campaigning for gender equality to create a more equitable workplace for all working parents.
Join Verena in conversation with our host Ally Maughan as they discuss the importance of supporting working parents to develop their careers, exploring not just the benefits for parents and families, but also the significant advantages that supporting working parents has for businesses.
Connect with Verena on LinkedIn or discover more about the powerful work that Leaders Plus is undertaking on behalf of working parents on their website.
