Taking Family Leave: A Shift in Engagement

Welcome to the “Taking Family Leave: A Shift in Engagement” video lesson designed to help those who are planning to take family leave be mindful of how their priorities may change during their leave. This lesson is the sixth of eleven in the “Taking Family Leave” course, which is designed to help employees effectively plan and return from a family leave so the transition in and out of the workplace is as smooth as possible. This lesson goes into what expectations need to be set with one’s manager and team, as well as how to reconnect with work after the family leave. Ultimately, after viewing this lesson, learners should be more aware of how the family leave may affect them and understand how to improve their engagement once they return to work.
