Read the pledge IBM's leadership team created to promote better work-life balance for its remote employees and working parents
, the call was about an important client, and Roche, a leader for North America communications, was nervous. Just before she was about to dial in, her then 10-month-old son rolled off his changing table. After speaking with her doctor and confirming that she didn't need to bring her son to the ER, she hopped on the call, apologizing repeatedly for being late.
When Kramer told Roche that she was one of the models for the pledge, Roche was thrilled. After her daughter was born two years ago, Roche, who lives in Bethesda, MD,directed at young parents. She wanted to give voice to some of the challenges of being a working mom, constantly balancing her children's needs with job performance. As with her blog, she hoped the pledge would help create a better work experience for her colleagues.
Vannucci said that not long after the quarantine began, a friend of hers and her 10-year-old son came to stay with Vannucci in her Manhattan apartment. The situation made her grateful that she didn't need to have her video on all the time. Papas brought his set of remote work guidelines to different IBM departments, including HR, to get feedback. After talking with a coworker in the UK, Papas decided to change the document from a list of guidelines to a pledge: rather than just another company-mandated set of rules, it became voluntary, a way for individuals to express solidarity and commit to doing what they could to support one another.
