This is great! How do you recommend bringing this up to an employer who seems stuck in the inflexible, "traditional" ways of work?

Hope this helps! Top-down, traditional work places can be harder to get approval, but piloting your job share takes risk off your manager and makes it easier to sell to their higher ups. We teach you how to get the salary and benefits that value your expertise and job share with Job Share Academy. Also, after evaluating if your values match those of your company, sometimes if the gap is too wide, it’s time to make a career pivot.

Truthfully, they might be less likely to pilot a practice they aren’t familiar with. However, the best approach is to gauge a good time and way to broach the topic, put in the upfront work of finding your partner and creating your plan with a Job Share Proposal and presenting the business case. All doable! Work Muse is launching the first-ever step-by-step implementation program (online, in a cohort with hands on support) soon!
