WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US
“I went into coaching sceptical about what I would get out. It was brilliant!”
Louise, MD, BlackRock
“…the feedback has been amazing, from both returners and line managers.”
Kirsty, Head of Development & Wellbeing, ITV
“Comeback coaching has given returning colleagues the confidence to have more open conversations with their line managers about their career aspirations. We’ve started to see a shift in the number of women in senior positions and TTKS have certainly helped with that journey.”

How Comeback Coaching for Maternity Returners impacts Career Development in Professional Services
Comeback coaching is a phrase we coined to describe coaching that supports a person re-entering the world of work after a period of extended leave. We work mainly with women returning to work after maternity leave and this coaching is referred in academic literature as ‘maternity coaching’. Our work is wider than maternity and includes […]

How to help colleagues beat the summer strain
Quite by chance* I watched Robert Waldinger’s TED Talk last week on the longest longitudinal study of human happiness. The Harvard study has been running since 1938 and finds high quality personal relationships are the best predictor of happiness, health and longevity. Here in the summer of 2021 employees’ relationships at home are under strain […]
Coming Back with Confidence – Mini Masterclass
How can I show I’m still committed? How do I raise my visibility? Can I do a good job and progress my career and still have time for family life? These are three of the challenges we regularly hear from coachees coming back from maternity and other types of extended leave. They work in organisations […]
Shared Parental Leave – What do Business Leaders Think?
We thank Liz Wright, a past coachee and Risk Assurance Partner at the global tax and audit firm RSM for this personal perspective on Shared Parental Leave. I’ve long been a fan of all things Scandi, the brooding crime dramas, the pastries and their general approach to life. They have a different view on parenting […]
Why are we fans of walking coaching meetings?
We’ve been advocates of walking coaching meetings for many years. Research tells us that outdoor walking leads to more ‘creative’ thinking[1] than sitting inside or being pushed in a wheelchair outdoors. And the boost in divergent thinking lingers when you return to your (indoor) desk. For many of our coachees who are returning to work […]
The mental health benefits of keeping in touch on maternity leave
It is well documented that having a baby is stressful. Heart-expanding and magical and incredible but also brain-bendingly exhausting too. Until you become a parent – in fact until you become a mother – it’s nigh on impossible to grasp the transformation you will go through. Overnight, you go from being an independent woman, living […]
Why you should champion powerful KIT days
If you want your staff to feel confident coming back into work after maternity leave, gently remind them of their value by inviting them into the workplace several times during their time away. Just like you might offer a new member of staff the opportunity to attend a team meeting or a social event (remember […]
