...the guidance I was given. But now everyone wants to staff me after I come back. Oh yeah the beach is packed. I learned a lot, built my network, and own/participate in some key initiatives. Any guidance appreciated. I want to take paternity leave. Didn't do it for my first kid and I regret it.
I recognize that this is really easy for me to say, but prioritize this special time with your baby and take the leave as you are entitled to. So cliche but so true, you’ll never get this time back. I love what this job allows me to do in providing for my family but it certainly has given me some regrets about absent times with my kids as well.
Thanks appreciate it
You’re doing the right thing. We have to flex as organizations to make this happen for new dads. Make sure you’re staying involved with activities before your paternity leave so there isn’t any reason to let you go before then.
