Maternity teaches us a set of hard skills and software skills
The mother of two children and the Global Marketing Director of Sydney Williams amounted to an impressive resume on LinkedIn, as he believes that being a mother is a complicated FulTime-work.
"About me: I am a mother of two boys who have not yet turned three years old. Most of the time I do not understand what I am doing. But I adapt. I am always incredibly energetic and creative so that people around me feel protected, meaningful and inspired. I am a person, so sometimes I go out of myself, and I have bad days. But every morning I wake up with optimism: today there will be a good day, today we will have time to do more, today there will be a breakthrough, "Sydney wrote in the resume.
Also Williams listed his skills: "I can do everything you know how to do you, only with one hand. Literally. I keep my strength with one hand the most valuable thing - my child, and the second I perform all daily tasks. I ruthlessly arrange priorities. As a result, every day I get stronger and work more efficiently. "
"I think ten steps forward. Every day for me as a Jenga-puzzle from more than 50 details, which I decide with the help of skill, strategy and good luck, "Sidney continued.
"Even if my patience is on the outcome, I keep a positive attitude. Sometimes my team crashes, emotions are glowing, and new tasks arise on the horizon daily. I am a leader who knows how to sympathize, listens to the discussion and encourages problems with the help of a compromise, "she graduated from Williams a description of his professional maternal skills.
Williams explained what the essence of this resume: "I was curious, no matter how my resume would look like, if I listed in it only those skills that received thanks to motherhood."
"Like many, I am shocked how the destructive pandemic was for working women - in particular, mothers. My "Maternal Summary" is not unique. I do not even doubt that those moms from among 156 thousand who lost their work in December of women possess many other incredible skills that we are looking for in our team, colleagues, superiors, "Sidney emphasized.
Williams hopes that employers will become more appreciated the skills received outside the office, because then many mothers would have a real chance to get a job. Because of the pandemic, alas, many women in the US had to make a choice between family and quarry.
