In the eighth episode of our podcasts in this series, ‘Boosting your Working Parents’ Wellbeing and Resilience from Bright Horizons’, Jennifer Liston-Smith, Head of Thought Leadership Bright Horizons UK, suggests that employers step up their support for working parents and practical tips to achieve this.

For over 20 years, Jennifer has been relentless in pursuit of innovation, identifying, defining and sharing best practice and ‘next practice’ for leading global employers in flexible working, family-friendly and wellbeing programmes, closing the gender pay gap and promoting gender-inclusive parenting. She is a sought-after speaker, writer, conference moderator and consultant on these topics and more. Jennifer set up, and for a decade led, the Coaching & Consultancy side of what became Bright Horizons Work+Family Solutions on programmes for working parents and carers and evaluating their impact and ROI, as well as developing coaches and coaching capability. She now focuses on identifying overarching trends through research and through advising employers and translating these insights into solutions and practical actions.
