GoKawiilFast Company's M-Suite community urges executives to take full maternity leave
Rati Sahi Levesque, in comments shared through Fast Company's M-Suite community for women leaders, argues that corporate America should let employees set their own work schedules rather than enforce rigid hours, provided the work gets done. The community, aimed at women balancing leadership and motherhood, is inviting new members to apply.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The advice reflects a broader push among some executives to normalize flexible, outcome-based work arrangements rather than presence-based schedules, which could particularly affect policies around parental leave and return-to-work expectations. Framing this through a dedicated community for women leaders suggests organizers see a gap in support networks for executives managing caregiving alongside career demands.
- Rati Sahi Levesque advocates for self-set schedules over rigid corporate hours
