Ask me a Q

My guest today is Katy, a marketing professional who’s been back at work from her second parental leave for 18 months. She returned during the pandemic to a wholesale restructuring of the marketing team which led to her heading for redundancy. However, two weeks before she was due to leave, role that was perfect for her came up and so she stayed – but it’s only for a year. Our conversation took place when Katy had been in this new role six months and she’s feeling uncertain, a little insecure and wanting to fortify her confidence. 

HOW WAS YOUR RETURN TO WORK?

Could your return to work have been smoother? Could your line manager have been more empathetic?

We’re on a mission to keep everyone everywhere feeling confident, connected and cared for when they take extended leave from work. Our Comeback Community™ employee experience is designed to do just that.

We work with employers such as ITV, BlackRock and Lily’s Kitchen. Share these two short films (less than 2 minutes) with your HR Team today:

• Comeback Community employee experience – WHAT is it?
• Comeback Community employee experience – WHY do you need it?
