Parenthood Advantage: Stop Losing Your Best Talent


Listen Later

Your best employees aren't leaving because they became parents—they're leaving because you don't know how to support them.

Mason Donovan and Mark Kaplan reveal shocking research: 100% of parents believe becoming a parent made them better employees—more empathetic, resilient, and organized. Yet the "motherhood penalty" persists (4% income decrease per child), while men get a 6% bonus.

The culprit? Well-intentioned managers making career-killing decisions "on behalf of" parents without including them.

In this conversation, Mason and Mark (Managing Partners of The Dagoba Group and authors of The Parenthood Advantage) share:

  • The manager assumption trap driving talent away
  • Why 95% of companies fail to support working parents adequately
  • Three organizational quick wins to stop the talent bleed
  • How parents can own their leave and advocate effectively
  • Special offer: Get 25% off The Parenthood Advantage with code COURAGE
