The Parental Leave Program from Karriere mit Familie Powered by MyCollective
A win win situation for companies and employees
Companies that support employees during and after parental leave benefit from higher retention, a future-ready talent pipeline, and a strong, family-friendly employer brand. At the same time, parents can turn parental leave from a ‘career downer’ into a ‘career booster’ by transferring their parenting skills to the business world.

"The parental leave training and coaching program helped me to recognize my parenting skills as valuable strengths in my professional life. By exchanging ideas with other parents, I was able to gain new perspectives and build a supportive network. Through program support and 1:1 coaching, I was able to recognize my needs, values and priorities in order to confidently and successfully return to work after parental leave."
"Career coaching helped me to identify my strengths more clearly and to target my professional goals. Through coaching, I not only developed a clear strategy for my application, but also received valuable impulses for my personal development. Tips on how I can use AI effectively for my applications were enormously helpful. They made my application process more efficient and targeted."

“The most valuable aspect of the training was the opportunity to exchange ideas with other parents and share practical tips and strategies. In addition, the comprehensive manual was a great help in organizing thoughts and gaining more clarity in advance. It was extremely valuable to gain insights not only into preparing for returning to work, but also into organizing everyday family life.”
