Supporting Parents

 

Being a working parent or care-giver has always been a serious act of juggling, requiring extra good organisation skills. The fast pace of change in our society, lack of time, vanished boundaries between work and home and hyper connectivity are making it extremely difficult for working parents to feel good (and sometimes perform well) in both their roles as parents and employees.


Overview

 

Suitable for all staff

The session provides a toolkit for parents and care-givers of children of all ages, to boost resilience and enhance their health and wellbeing, and bring their best self to work and family life.

This is a very practical workshop, anchored both in the latest scientific research and a deeply compassionate perspective.

We set the scene by exploring the challenges of being a working parent in 2023. Change always starts with awareness, this step will allow participants to identify all their struggles and the areas that require some attention.

We then move to a series of easy and practical tips and tools to help parents consistently bring their best self to work and be the best parent at home.

This includes how to create a virtual barrier between work and home and learn to unplug from work when need be (and vice versa), and how to communicate both at work and at home to support to balance, responsibilities, priorities and personal choices.
