The path back from motherhood to work is not easy – every mother who has experienced this situation knows that. A promotion as a mother is even more challenging. This often has less to do with the children who suddenly influence life and more with society and the working world. Parental leave and motherhood are still seen as a "black hole in a resume," often overlooked by employers as what it truly is: the most demanding training for leaders one can choose. In a relatable and competent manner, Anette Lippert explains, using five "building blocks" with examples from family and business life, the essential leadership skills that mothers acquire and why they are valuable to any company. The book provides a long-overdue translation of the skills for women who may not yet recognize their own competencies, but also for their surroundings.
