Description
It’s an open secret that many organizations’ parental leave policies in the U.S. are subpar—if they exist at all. And if you ask someone why grappling with parental leave is so fraught, you’re bound to get a firehose of frustrating answers. That’s because most organizations approach parental leave as a benefit that costs the company itself rather than as a strategic opportunity for greater learning and development. Enter Dr. Amy Beacom and Sue Campbell from the Center for Parental Leave Leadership and co-authors of the book The Parental Leave Playbook. They believe the parental leave transition is the most overlooked opportunity for professional growth—and they teach organizations how to tap into its potential. What does good parental leave practice look like? How can those transitions improve team communication and trust? And how can healthier parental leave practices make way for more inclusive definitions of leave? We dig into all of it in this episode.
