Creating a mat leave plan that meets your individual needs requires clarity, knowledge and the ability to communicate and negotiate effectively with your manager and others. Without a roadmap, the process can be overwhelming. This course will guide you through the process so you can save time and take more effective actions, so you can focus on the things that matter.
Action is the key to success. That's why you'll receive a 17-page ebook that is chock full of information, conversation guides and a suite of templates you can use to make planning as easy and efficient as possible.
Many mothers will plan more than one maternity leave during their careers. That's why for as long as the program is in existence, you can retake it at no additional charge.

Hi, I’m Lisa Durante. My commitment to my job, let alone my career, was never called into question until the day I announced my pregnancy. On that day, my manager – who had been my mentor and champion – asked: “Will you come back to work?”
Women face the systemic challenges of unconscious bias the moment they announce their pregnancy.
The experience of being judged on what others assume I should want or be now that I was pregnant, let alone the struggle I faced in reclaiming my career after having a baby was not easy. Yet, it’s been harder to watch women coming up behind me struggle with the very same challenges.
That’s why I’m here.
