There has been amazing progress in Sweden in terms of childcare. Truly raising a family takes a village, and Sweden's efforts to support everyone in that system are a nod to the respect they have for the family unit and keeping it healthy. Perhaps this article contains some ideas that you might be interested in incorporating in your organizations.
Sweden is already miles ahead in terms of paid parental leave and child care, and they’re not slowing down. The Nordic country has passed a law that allows new parents to transfer a portion of their paid child care benefits to grandparents who step in to help in those early days and months. Swedish parents are allowed 480 days of paid leave per child. This new law allows them to transfer 45 days of that leave to a grandparent, or 90 days if you’re a single parent. Not to mention, studies show that children grow up happier if grandparents are involved in their upbringing. After all, it takes a village! Oxford University and the Institute of Education found that the emotional support that grandparents give to children is vital. When families come together to raise children, they feel happy, secure and supported. Share the responsibilities. Share the benefits. Bravo, Sweden 👏

Turn good intentions into consistent data points. Recently, on our Elevate podcast, Patti Cook and Kris Jenkins sat down with Roger Pimentel, VP of Marketing at Boncom. When the organization re-engaged with the #ElevateHER Challenge several years ago, one of the first principles they wanted to tackle was pay parity. Learn how Roger approached this principle within his organization and the tool he found the most helpful to close the gaps. What tools or processes does your organization have regarding creating pay parity? #elevate #wlipodcast #payparity #leadership

CHG Healthcare is an ElevateHER challenge company that consistently works to create belonging in their company. Some of their leaders, Brooke Eastham, Julie Sibthorp, CMP, and Dani Weigand ASCPO, all WLI program alum and CHG employees, came this week to share their leadership expertise with our Rising Leaders Cohort. We love showcasing the companies and the people walking the talk!

Managing Director of Business Services at Utah Governor's Office of Economic Opportunity (GOEO)
Last month, I sat down with Patti Cook at Women's Leadership Institute to talk about the state's economy, the new Utah Startup State Initiative, my work experience during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how my work supports and provides opportunities for all Utahns, including women. Here's part one of our conversation: https://lnkd.in/gJgkH-Eg
