Summary

As the world navigates the challenges of remote work and school closures, leaders are faced with a unique opportunity to support working parents who are shouldering a second full-time job. To do so, they must be flexible about meetings, avoid frustration, and not assume all decisions require in-person meetings. By embracing asynchronous work and respecting unpredictable schedules, leaders can create a sense of community and foster a culture that values work-life balance. This includes offering support to parents who may need help with childcare or simply a listening ear, as well as encouraging non-parents to ask about their needs and offer assistance when possible.
