The Invisible Leadership Revolution | Heather Powers

Corporate America is bleeding talent pretending the needs of working parents are asking for a perk, at the expense of being a profit engine.   This week Heather Powers, author of The Power Lane: Why Keeping Moms in the Workforce REVS the Economy exposes this hypocrisy.   "Women are not leaving the workforce, they're leaving the workplace."   Let’s get real with the facts:  The undeniable math:  Companies losing parents are burning money.  Replacement costs run 2x salary while teams flounder for months. Smart organizations are waking up.   The data needs to demolish myths:  Most productive employees? Parents with multiple kids.  The talent shortage isn't theoretical—it's here, and businesses ignoring parent flexibility are losing their competitive edge. Stop apologizing for parenthood: How to dismantle outdated the "work vs. family" dichotomy. No more apologizing for Thursday soccer games— leverage those constraints into ruthless productivity. Your Ace: The uncomfortable truths: Company's stubbornness isn't just hurting parents—it's sabotaging shareholder value. The most expensive words in business? "This is how we've always done it."   Like what you hear? Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a 5-star review!
