Power of the Parent 16: S6 Ep16: Supporting a Strong Return®

The OG of topics around here is supporting people returning to the workplace after any form of parental leave, so it’s time to dive in on the podcast! Great returns from parental leave don’t happen by accident, and no amount of stand alone workshops will create the transformation – it has to be a team effort. So, in this episode I’m going to take you upstream with the three things, so you stop away from performative or transactional experiences, and instead leave a lasting, positive impact for someone re-entering the business. 

The three things we’re exploring are:

  1. Connectivity to your talent strategy
  2. Strengths based conversations
  3. Re-induction plans rock
You might also be interested in an earlier episode, Episode 3, which looked at a specific part of returner support – parental leave transition coaching. 

If you’re looking for further content on Strengths based development and conversations, Strengthscope have some wonderful downloadable free resources including these ebooks https://www.strengthscope.com/resources/ebooks and the founder, Paul Brewerton has a fab podcast psychology@work which is another hard recommend from me. 

Whilst this all gives ideas, the magic really happens when you get creative within your own workplace.  If you’d like to hear more about how we partner with organisations in the returner space you can get in touch directly with Charlotte by emailing charlotte.speak@power-of-the-parent.com
