"We are people before we are employees. How #power-ful would it be if more companies adopted that way of thinking." Emily Arrow "We can normalize the realities of not only #working parents, but working humans who should be able to come to work as their full selves—kids or no kids." Shakivla Todd "Motherhood is...an asset." Sara Ahmed Holman "Lead as a parent-first company." Bobbie #OnRepeat #InspiredByYou & the thoughts on reposts highlighted above. +"Motherhood is not a monolithic experience: it is dangerous for many and deadly for some … Black women are 3 times more likely than white women to die from pregnancy-related causes" Erin Gallagher repost: https://lnkd.in/e_Atg3EK +"being a gay parent, especially the non-birthing parent, even in 2024, is such a challenge."

This is brilliant - and what an impressive competitive advantage! This is my soap box: women control 85% of consumer spending decisions, and 90% of Fortune 500 CEOs are men. Which means that *most* big corporations’ strategy is dependant on the assumption that men understand what women want. Not only does Bobbie have an impressive flexible working situation, they are clearly putting their target audience in key roles within their company. (And I assume there’s a tantrum contingency plan.) Bravo! #startups #babytech #venturecapital #foodtech #diversity #inclusion #flexwork

This only highlights why the maritime industry will struggle to nudge the needle on the women make up 2% of the skill pool statistic. - You can be a parent and be top management at sea, of course but it sits at conflict with many other things life has to offer. Such as having a family. - You can be a superintendent and a mother of a young child - but not how the maritime industry currently stands. “Excuse me chief, just wind my baby”. Alternative arrangements need to be made. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS 👇 - What I would love to see more is a version of this making its way into maritime organisations. Recently, I asked someone who worked for household name furniture prodcuer if within there team how many of their colleagues were female? After rephrasing the question three times due to confusion, the person laughed and said oh it’s easily 50-50. It was so ingrained into that company culture that it was a given ‘fair’ representation policies had been implemented for so long and accepted, to even ask the question seemed silly. In the maritime domain we struggle, and on ships it’s difficult to see how we can reach 20% female representation let alone 50-50. But maybe we can start thinking so radically shore side and believe in the previously unthinkable to bring about change.

I love this! The future of work includes radical flexibilty. Organizations with outdated expectations will continue to struggle with staffing. I do believe one can have it all (“all” is personally defined), sometimes you may have to design and build it for yourself because legacy systems don’t often support or trust that one can provide high value and have a fully balanced life with self-care at the same time.
