Celebrating Care, Compassion and Feminine Power This Month

The month of March brings much to celebrate. Its National Women’s History month; March 8th is International Women’s Day; and National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day is March 29th. The month is blanketed with promises of compassion and feminine power.

And with Covid-19 nearing endemic status, it is the hope of Focus Marketing & PR that the time will soon come when business managers alter their views of the traditional workforce and lean into a labor pool with added compassion and acceptance of non-traditional career paths. For many working people, especially those with dependents, Covid has forced us to simultaneously double-up on our priorities (working parents unite!), or to abandon one and not look back.

Re-entry into the workforce has never been easy, and in times of Covid, it’s no different. Non-traditional work is still work, and skills gained through managing a household, caring for dependents, and more, should never be considered a pause in employment or a resume gap. Instead, hiring managers should seek to consider the “why” behind the temporary shift and appreciate this new reality embraced by so many.

If you’re considering a return to the workforce, we dedicate March 7th, National Be Heard Day, to you. The day seeks to pay homage to small businesses owners and aspiring owners to make their voices heard, so you might lay claim to your share of the market. Here’s to growth and new beginnings in the month ahead, and always. And special birthday wishes to Cory & Niki’s daughter Teddy, an inspiring young female among us.
