enranrea gak setuju banget sama pemikiran ini yaa.. soalnya malah sebagai ibu, justru otaknya jalannya jauh lebih kenceng. yang namanya multitasking itu udah jadi part of her daily activities. dan stress? wah udah makanan sehari2 deh. moms work under pressure all the time. jadi sayang banget kalo ada yang menganggap ibu RT itu memorynya ga canggih. emang sih di awal2 ibu yang baru lahiran itu memorynya emang kayak bisa ilang gitu, gue juga ngalamain, pas balik kerja, lupa semua... tapi ya itu wajar karena selama maternity leave sibuk ngurusin anak. tapi makin lama malah makin terlatih.
ini ada artikel ttg 5 top reasons why Moms make the best employees dari SINI .. gue quote aja 5 reasons nya ya..
1. Professionalism: She will not distract your clients from the business at hand by showing her cleavage, tattoos, body piercings, flip flops, by flipping her hair, or saying "UM" or "LIKE..."
2. Schedule Coordination: You will never meet a professional better equipped to manage multiple schedules than a Mom. Conflicting sports and activities, travel schedules along with the huge amounts of paperwork associated with each, make them pros at this. As a matter of fact, they are so adept at this that they know how to face complete chaos in a calm and professional manner.
3. Organizational Ability: None of the above happens without keen planning. Uniforms must be washed; bags must be packed- water bottles, completed homework, snacks and sunscreen, permission slips and bathing, including checking/ clipping 20 finger/toenails per person must happen in advance. If one detail is missed, the entire schedule can fall apart and they will be called on the carpet- either by a disappointed child (much more painful than a disapproving boss), or by a school and/or coach (too embarrassing to mention). The level of accountability far surpasses any business environment I have ever worked in, which includes Fortune 100 companies.
4. Loyalty: If any one demographic knows and understands the importance of loyalty and "giving back", this is it. These women know how to appreciate a job and flexibility. As an employer, if you can offer what this employee needs, you will get it back four-fold. They will treat your business as though it is theirs. And they will tell all their friends about you- so you see? Free marketing built right in!
5. People Management: Anyone who has ever managed people knows that one of the most difficult groups to manage has to be volunteers. The variety of personalities and agendas among people who are not being paid and are emotionally involved could drive a person nuts. The volunteer leader's intuitive ability to "see all sides" and maintain harmony within a group like this is definitely worthy of international acclaim. And, they know how to manage their own demographic, in addition to understanding how the minds of the Millennials and Gen Y-s tick!
