FamSmart at Work

Ready to take on another exciting, intense and important work week.👍💪☘

The former gave a lot. 🙏

One of the highlights was “Jobbfestivalen” in Kungsträdgården, a big event with focus on Diversity & Inclusion and recruitment. Arranged by the fabulous Mats Wernheim.
Hundreds of employers met competent job seekers, and last year several hundred landed in a great match.👍😀

Exciting to hear the panelists and also to discover a bit which front line employers that want to offer a workplace in their work/ . = who know the most important keys that help them and employees through the phases of life, like when they become parents and take . Like the thoughts of Mikaela Tudeen Tudéen, EB specialist at Strawberry (the former Nordics Choice group brand new name) We identify organisations that think outside the box and dare to try new moves.

I now had the chance to network with another new star in our FamSmart team by my side: Maria Sölscher. 🤩

What a strong and smart combo we are! 😀👍 Maria's experience and deep knowledge of building digital solutions and tech teams is absolutely invaluable to us and our customers on the growth journey now.🙏

Besides, we have so much FUN when we work together! Important. 😃👍


🙂

WOW, so much is happening now!
I am so thankful, hopeful, relieved and happy. 🙏 😀
You who have followed my entrepreneurial journey during the years understand the feeling for sure.

The company is growing, with:
⭐ Amazing operative stars in the FamSmart team

⭐ Front line employers who want to pave the way together with us

⭐ The large and growing group of "FamSmart believers" out there, supporters on the journey during the years.

And GROWTH is since the start (2010) the FamSmart key nr 1: Growth for individuals (competence development) and for companies/organisations (attract, develop, retain talent).
☘ Family competence grows and adds value at work - everywhere.

Now we can finally scale smart and fast - simply go as far as we and our customers want and need. Our solution is global. 😀 🌍

Together with committed forefront customers and interested investors we will provide several of our sharpest FamSmart keys.

Proven efforts that we have explored and helped employers initiate during the last 10 years on a global arena.
Focusing on the most efficient tools, easy to implement as starting point to develop leader attitudes and workplace norms, in all countries. Regardless of industry, culture and local legislation.
Most employers want to attract, develop and retain employees, and offer a sustainable and inclusive working life through all stages in life.

We have now been granted an Innovation loan from Almi for our unique idea. Almi has been absolutely fantastic on the business development journey the last years. Amazing advisors, on-the-spot support, many thanks to you all Charlotta Strand, Johannes Heljelid, Patrik Kägu, Samuel Söderholm and others!
I can 100% recommend Almi support for entrepreneurs here in Sweden.

Below a late afternoon screen shot with one of my new fantastic team members, Marcus Larsson, when we after another intense working day tested some functions in Google Meet.. (Laughter is important now and then, especially when very busy and challenging days.)

Will get back with more about Marcus and our other FamSmart stars shortly.

Happy - and curious to see which companies/organisations and partners that will join our exciting journey forward. :-)

I just left a session with amazing role model companies in Moldova, Kosovo and Albania, piloting the UNFPA Eastern Europe & Central Asia model , developed in collaboration with us.

Today a follow-up with experience shared from a train-the-trainer program about piloting a meeting with parents on leave.

The best practice with impact in the long run is always the one created locally, adapted to each company and country context. Examples of great ideas shared between the participants.

🌳 Outdoor parent meeting at INCA Albania – informal and energy boosting for all, and colleagues joined to mingle with the ones on leave. 😀

🚼 Viber Chat for dialogue with parents on leave and amazing child care initiatives at Panilino in Moldova, creating a work place culture inspiring many others.

💡 Inspiring online meeting example from Linella in Moldova, with very positive feedback from many in the company

👩‍👧‍👦 Raiffeissen Bank in Kosovo opened the parent meeting with a board member and mother of 3 sharing her story, a great way to show management commitment

🙌 Raiffeisen Bank Albania engaged managers in new creative ways, inviting them to the parent meeting. To listen to their employees on leave, and openly also sharing their own experience as working parents. Not always obvious to have managers join these meetings, but when it works and the work place culture is truly built on trust and openness, it can really add huge value for all.

All pilot companies got what we wished for too: lots of interest, curiosity and positive feedback from managers on all levels - a teaser that now leads to more concrete action. And a focus on like , , and , as well as how family develop and should be seen as an asset also at work.

Well done all of you! We will follow your examples. 😊
