Without minimising the complexity that becoming a parent adds to the lives of professional men, the impact on FEMALE TALENT and their career potential, is immense. The share of women in leadership positions remains low, despite progress over the last 10 years, making the business case for diversity stronger than ever. Our Parental Transition Coaching Programme support parents before, during and after parental leave to manage this transformational period of their lives. The focus is on a smooth transition for the individual, their line manager and their team. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611844659120-8FJBF31M0VUTLZRCQTEY/Great-expectations-coronation+copy.jpg Home - Great Expectations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611845067608-8RR0GB2PPSR8MW2JMLRZ/Great-expectations-rmb.jpg Home - Great Expectations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611844625987-O449Y5G3NOZ8PTGR1EKM/Great-expectations-bowmans+copy.jpg Home - Great Expectations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/e148bc77-f0db-4638-a1f3-18779a10ebce/Deloitte+logo.png Home - Great Expectations - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611844776609-94NR5Y9HEFQ9DUS5IHDN/Great-expectations-ww+copy.jpg Home - Great Expectations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611844695226-K3KRF0BB8QWDHL9CCKBE/Great-expectations-nedbank+copy.jpg Home - Great Expectations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/a479df9f-0cb0-4e62-84f1-325ff7e6da87/ENS+africa.png Home - Great Expectations - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611846547772-8JYVTO8GXIFY1EFPMR9M/Great-expectations-Iconsc-01.png Home - Great Expectations INCREASE The proportion of women, especially senior women, who return to pursue their careers post maternity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611846564926-51MY7D8M0OGVNLL52IMT/Great-expectations-Iconsc-03.png Home - Great Expectations FACILITATE Faster and more seamless re-integration into the business and return to full productivity for women who have been on maternity leave. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611846579815-8HY4FCE9X4I9OQKOG1V4/Great-expectations-Iconsc-04.png Home - Great Expectations STRENGTHEN The talent pipeline and deepen gender diversity to meet strategic and performance goals. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611846595588-69NCNRRK41D0PQC48D1Z/Great-expectations-Iconsc-02.png Home - Great Expectations SHIFT In traditional thinking and bias towards working parents. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1613067008766-LG51FGQWDYIDJ5ELQG1U/Great-Expectations_coachee2.png Home - Great Expectations https://parentalcoaching.co.za/services daily 0.75 2021-02-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611869935257-BTYC6NCJNG2JI8MZC7G3/Great-expectations-services2.jpg Services - PROGRAMME FOR MOTHERS One of the hardest identity shifts women face is that of dedicated career person to career-loving parent with expanded priorities.

In dual career couples, both parents are seeking to share parenting responsibilities more equitably and for both to continue with their highly successful and demanding careers. We feel strongly that in supporting fathers through this transition, we help to make it more feasible for women to continue to focus on their careers without interruption or a reduction in earnings. * Deloitte UK in conjunction with Daddilife, May 2019 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1613067564550-DKAMQ1LFATW98LMVCBZK/Great-Expectations_coachee4.png Services https://parentalcoaching.co.za/about daily 0.75 2021-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1612472621812-CKVQ1F5XZC6Z2CPTMMGE/Great-expectations-melany.png About - “I want to mentor and equip women to achieve personal fulfilment through combining a worthwhile career with a family life.” Melany Green, Founder & Executive Coach https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1613068436461-4U1M3Z6XALACHUFCNRGS/Great-Expectations_coachee6.png About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1612473531267-QGUKCW6PHFGXPEYEOJ26/Great-expectations-fam_mel2.jpg About - Melany Green Deep and expansive acumen as a leader and business owner, together with personal experience of an enduring 40-year marriage and motherhood, are a few attributes in Melany’s toolkit as an executive and parental transition coach.

As mother to a son, Aneshrie felt the constant tension of integrating the multiple roles of being a professional working mother. Curious to understand what support mechanisms were available for women like herself, Aneshrie explored this topic further in her Masters dissertation … and this path led to a destined meeting with Melany. And so began a love for this genre of coaching. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1611878375052-C5CY5DEFTJC54A3Z60OA/Great-expectations-about-men.jpg About - WHAT ABOUT THE MEN? Our work is not exclusive to women. We recognize the power of men as allies and the value of engaging them in the conversation. In most instances, the men we coach are the husbands or partners of women who have careers and children. Recently pioneering parental coaching for fathers – another first in SA – we regard this as a major contribution to normalising the parental transition in the eyes of organisations for both genders and its impact on career advancement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1613068214040-PTZLPNQ27KOQ6LAHYB2S/Great-Expectations_coachee5.png About https://parentalcoaching.co.za/contact daily 0.75 2021-02-12 https://parentalcoaching.co.za/member-areas-1 daily 0.75 2021-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1599601322173-X9NP3K6IAB3ZUNSXVDQO/tina-rose-desk.jpg z_Member Area https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1599601718548-CSGQW0105ZB6O8Z7VY34/coach-square.jpg z_Member Area https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1599601930981-DEPRQRO6YDFS89LOZWUV/laptop.jpg z_Member Area - Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://parentalcoaching.co.za/resources-cundall daily 0.75 2021-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f200bf5361ada2590ffeb49/1616998406310-RXEMH5R58Y6FLBKHC6V1/Screenshot+2021-03-29+at+08.12.51.png Resources - Cundall - Presented to Cundall by Melany Green 24 March 2021 Worksheets: Couples Contracting Network and Relationship Mapping
