The Connection Advantage Corporate Edition: Family Connection at Work
What your people hold outside of work comes with them to work.
An expert led program for organisations that invest in their people. We give employees, leaders and executives simple, powerful strategies for life at home, so they arrive at work with clarity, focus and their best thinking.

Who this is for
For organisations that champion the people behind the roles.
Family Connection at Work is designed around each organisation we work with: your workplace, your teams, your leadership and the pressures that come with your industry.
Built for every level of your organisation
- Employees and teams, across every site, office and roster
- People leaders, who support working parents in their teams
- Partners, executives and senior lawyers, who hold the most and ask for the least
- CEOs and owners, who want the same clarity at home that they lead with at work
- People and Culture teams, who want support that adds to what they already offer
Why now
Get ahead of it, before it shows up at work.
This is preventative work. Nothing needs to be broken for it to matter. The pressures that move with your team between home and work build over time, and high performers are often the last to say so.
- The return from leave, when hours change but expectations often do not
- Senior people managing clients, teams and a household at once
- Homes where both parents work in demanding roles
- The everyday guilt of the missed event, the late call, the full week
What your staff leave with
Connection at home. Capacity at work.
A clear handover
A simple way to move from work to home, so their family meets them and not their inbox.
Focus at work
Less worry brought from home into the office, and more attention for the work in front of them.
Confident leaders
Managers who know how to support working parents, whether or not they are parents themselves.
A supported return
Practical strategies for the first months back from leave, when the pressure is highest.
Less guilt
Micro moments that fit the time they already have, built on what they are already doing well.
A shared language
One way of talking about the pressures between home and work, across every office and level.
