RYP Pro Development: Integrating Family & Career
May 24, 2018 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
FreeOver the last roughly 40 years, much increasingly has been done to assist women as they have entered the workforce to ensure that they have the tools needed to meet their professional potential. However, there has been a lack of cohesive frameworks and tools with which to support women, and their loved ones, to be most successful in accomplishing both their family and career aspirations so they experience fewer unintended and often unanticipated setbacks.
At Arkatecht, they know that for women who want to have children and thriving careers, knowledge is key to making the best decisions for now and the future to prevent these setbacks. It’s been precisely for this reason why they’ve been developing an app, Endeavor, which advises women of what impact they can expect their pregnancies to have on how they carry out their jobs in the workplace, so they can better navigate them and optimize their pre-natal and post-natal job and professional advancement decisions. Think of it as GPS for the working parent; a means to a particular end: supporting professional women during a life-changing transition that is rife with increasing ‘opt out’ rates in which women leave their jobs and sometimes the workforce because they believe they are unable to balance family and career obligations even though they very much want to stay employed and thrive in their careers.
But before Endeavor launches this summer, they are holding workshops to engage as many women as possible to educate them about how best to plan for a family, with foresight based on lessons learned by women who already experience the family-career juggling act, and to give them a sneak peek at Endeavor and their product road map to see the add-ons that will be rolled out to ensure that Endeavor has the power to advise women through pregnancies, adoption processes, and all of the other ways in which they become parents.
