RETAIN & ENGAGE COACHING PROGRAMME
​
Are you a forward-thinking organisation looking for ways to retain and engage your valuable talent returning from parental leave?
​
Do you have an equal gender balance at some levels of your organisation but fewer women in the top ranks?
​
Is your employee-attrition rate higher than it should be? Is the cost of turnover negatively impacting your P and L?

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
​
The Retain and Engage Coaching Programme addresses the practical and psychological challenges faced by professionals re-entering the workforce after a period of parental leave.
​
The programme has been developed based on:
​
- my experience of supporting returners, having worked with many career returners from the start of their return-to-work journey to the point at which they have successfully transitioned back into the workforce
-
my in-depth understanding of human behaviour and coaching
-
my knowledge and experience of working in a number of senior leadership roles and engaging large diverse teams
​
​
​
HOW IS THE COACHING STRUCTURED?​
​
The coaching is provided on a one-to-one basis for senior managers, directors and partners. It can also be delivered in group workshops for more junior employees.
​
All of the content can be designed to ensure the delivery of the programme is in line with your corporate values and goals, and that any materials reflect your company branding.
