For women to prepare for a professional absence they need more than inspirational messages. They need a plan and tools. Come back to see our step-by-step guide. Until then, W2W Ventures features solutions such as:

• Before you leave, sit down with your employer to see if you are eligible to be a Champion Employee.
• Position yourself as a solution to your employers' peak-period or client specific challenges using a complete portable employment and benefits infrastructure (supported by our partner MyBizOffice).
• Flexible Job Opportunites - if you don't strike a deal with your current employer, find opportunities working contract, part-time or flexible hours. Keeping a foot in the door will keep you sharp and fresh.
• Peruse W2W Ventures articles for best practices and other women's success stories.
• On-line Education will give you the flexibility to learn in your space and your time. It will keep you current and will communicate your commitment to professional development.
• Local Small Group Seminars and Networking - as women we know our network can save us. Join other top performing W2W Ventures users in one of Washington's fastest developing female networks. (Register with W2W Ventures and receive information about upcoming events.)
• Executive Coaches - life changes often change our expectation and desires. Prepare yourself by understanding your goals and get a little help positioning yourself for success through dynamic and thoughtful coaching sessions.
• Job Design Templates and Employment Agreements (more coming soon).
