The Challenge
Balancing career and family, retaining top employees in the long term
At GÖRG, the challenge was to retain working parents with the company in the long term and to support their career development right through to the partnership. In a demanding law firm environment, which requires a high level of flexibility and resilience, managers and employees should be specifically encouraged to combine their professional and family requirements. DeepSkill has developed a low-threshold, flexible program that offers individual coaching, group exchange and practice-oriented learning content. This not only strengthens the reconciliation of work and family, but also builds up a valuable network within the law firm.
The DeepSkill Solution
Tailored Support for Working Parents
After a thorough needs analysis, DeepSkill has developed a targeted program that provides flexible support to working parents in Görg's demanding law firm environment. The training modules combine individual coaching, e-learning units and moderated group sessions. The individual coaching sessions offer participants personal support, while the group sessions provide valuable insights and exchange opportunities with other working parents. These modules not only promote the reconciliation of work and family, but also build a stronger bond with the company and a long-term career perspective.
