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.”
Nicola, L&D Partner, Federated Hermes

Here's one past coachee, Divya Manek, on the latest episode of COMEBACK COACH talking CPD on maternity leave: https://www.talentkeepers.co.uk/comeback-coach-podcast/
COVID-19 Working from home with children
A number of coachees and clients have been asking us for help around how best to plan a working day when you are caring for for children. We know there will be a big difference between what an employee with two children aged 11+ and a furloughed spouse at home can reasonably do in a […]
Mindful Business Charter
As a psychologist I know that making a public commitment to taking a particular action increases the likelihood that we’ll do it. We feel uncomfortable with incongruity and not following through undermines our credibility. So too with organisations and that’s why employers signing workplace charters is an important step towards culture change. The Mindful Business […]
#DADB1
“They’re just hasn’t been the take-up we thought there would be,” is what I hear most often when I ask clients and HR practitioners about Shared Parental Leave. What if employers invited expectant fathers to tell them they are expecting a baby? How might this affect the take-up of Shared Parental Leave? “A voluntary ‘DADB1’ form […]
Liberal Democrats lead the charge with introduction of Parental Leave and Pay Arrangements (Publication) Bill
We’re thrilled to see the Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Jo Swinson leading a cross-party push to bring a Private Member’s Bill[1] that would require businesses with 250+ staff to be transparent and publish information on their parental leave and maternity/paternity/adoption and shared parental leave pay policies, in a bid to combat maternity discrimination. A successful […]

Founder of the 30% Club, ex-CEO of Newton Asset Management and mother of nine, Helena Morrissey is full of sage advice for business leaders and women who want to see gender balance in the workplace in her book “A Good Time to Be a Girl”. One of our favourite extracts is the re-counting of Andy Haldane’s […]

We heard about K&S’s enlightened approach to fathers, flexibility and shared parental leave and asked Jonathan to tell us some more.

What we told the Treasury Inquiry on Women and Finance
The average cost of childcare across the UK ranges from £213/week for a registered childminder to £512/week plus tax and NI for nannies, with nurseries sitting in between. In London, our financial centre, the cost rises to £276/week for a childminder, £278/week for a day nursery and £616 plus tax and NI for a nanny […]
If employers REALLY want more men to take Shared Parental Leave here’s how
What if employers invited expectant fathers to tell them they are expecting a baby? How might this affect the take-up of Shared Parental Leave? “They’re just hasn’t been the take-up we thought there would be,” is what I hear most often when I ask clients and HR practitioners about shared parental leave. This week at a […]

Are you struggling to find the right people for the vacancies in your organisation? Is gender diversity on your agenda? Last year we hosted a ‘hidden talent action tank’ to help employers tap into the increasing number of skilled women who want to come back to work after an extended break. This week, we attended […]
