How can you successfully balance a consulting career and parenthood?🔄 As part of our Training Week, we hosted a special community event: our parents’ breakfast. This gathering provided an opportunity for the parents on our team, future parents or anyone interested, to connect and exchange insights on combining the passion for consulting work with the joys and challenges of parenthood. In a supportive and open environment, our colleagues shared experiences, offered advice, and discussed strategies for successfully navigating the dual responsibilities of career and family. We recognize the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance and are committed to supporting our team members in the best way possible so that they can thrive both professionally and personally. #TrainingWeek #TeamSpirit #WorkLifeBalance
Two takeaways: #1 think about implementing a traffic-light-system, which reflects the mood and energy level of each parent. Yellow or even worse red light means, that the partner has to take some activities to avoid over-depletion (Dr. Tim Dereymaeker). #2 consider implementing power naps as a routine, when the kid is sleeping over the daytime (Chris Surel)
Including families at work is something we also care about. We loved that we could bring our little one to the trainer dinner also. Great organization and vibes at the last days ☀️

3wThat was a great breakfast yesterday. I love sharing new ideas and connecting with all our parents. When we started our parent community two years ago, we were six colleagues sitting together listening to an impulse from Tim Stoll. This was the start of our growing community. A big thank you to Markus Gellert and Dr. Johannes Witting, who are lead our community. ✨
