Prepare For Taking Maternity Leave Like A Pro – Maternity Leave Guide

by: Sarah TrottPosted on:

We at Fourth Trimester teamed up with Career Coach Sharon Weinberg to create a guide to help you make a smooth transition between working and being on leave.
The guide is useful for those who will be having a leave of one month or more, although elements of the approach can easily be used effectively for shorter absences.
This preparation can enable you to create the necessary clarity, accountability, and continued execution to strategy by you and your team during your absence and set them up for success. Paramount in the thinking and the approach is to
(1) minimize potential disruptions to operations due to confusion of ownership, partnership, and expected action,
(2) minimize the impact on your boss, team, and partnering departments, and
(3) create stretch leadership opportunities for your team members.
