4. Flexibility: The Key to Attracting and Retaining Top Talent (Especially Moms)
Description
Angela emphasized the importance of flexibility in the workplace, particularly for working mothers, as it allows them to better manage their professional and personal responsibilities, reducing stress and burnout. She highlighted the benefits of hybrid and remote work options, customized schedules, and flexible locations, which can attract and retain top talent. Angela encouraged business owners and leaders to consider these factors when shaping their company culture and policies.
“Hybrid and remote work options is huge, because offering that remote or hybrid schedule allows moms to save time on commuting and be more present at home while staying productive at work. Being a mom working from home, I can put in a quick load of laundry, I can start the dishwasher. It just helps create peace of mind that like some things that need to be done in the house, again, sometimes this doesn't always fall on the the mom, but a lot of times it does, and so that is why I am trying to advocate to clients that I'm working with. If they want more women in their company, they need to be thinking about these options.”
