The Leaders Plus Fellowship is offering career support to hundreds of working parents who are looking to continue their leadership careers whilst raising a young family.
The nine-month programme, supported by Cambridge University Social Ventures, enables parents with babies and young children to develop their careers; whilst still enjoying time with their young families. Fellows get exclusive access to a cross-organisational network of peers (often described as the NCT for ambitious professionals); as well as a personal senior leader mentor. Plus, there’s expert advice on career acceleration, practical support to overcome work/life hurdles and plenty of baby friendly online networking events and workshops; to provide courage and confidence navigating work and home life in a senior role.
CAREER ACCELERATION
Together, the Fellows will develop their careers and build a movement for positive change so that in the future, no parent has to decide between caring for their child and continuing to develop their leadership career. Applications are now open for the Autumn 2021 cohort. Check out the short video below for an overview of what’s involved.
This is the last chance to apply for this Autumn’s cohort. Applications close Monday 13 September 2021 for a self-funded, sponsored or hardship fund place; and Monday 11 October 2021 for an employer-funded place. Click here for more information about the programme.
According to a recent study, more than six out of 10 working parents with children under the age of 18 believe that their childcare/virtual schooling duties during the pandemic negatively affected their ability to get ahead in their job/career. Click here to read more.
