Do working fathers have it easy? With Han-Son Lee and Jim Bloomfield

from The Green Room: Questions that matter most in business · host Deloitte UK

Comical stereotypes of dads often show fatherhood as a bit of fun. Think dad dancing, dad jokes, dad bods and daddy day care. But with more dads than ever before now actively involved in parenting, is this really the case? Are we fuelling these stereotypes by treating working parents differently? And why are people still surprised when dads do decide to take on an active parenting role? How can workplaces help today's working fathers to look after their wellbeing and get that work-family life balance? This week, we're discussing whether today's working fathers really do have it easy. Our hosts George and Lizzie, both working parents, are joined by Jim Bloomfield, director in Clients & Industries, and Han-Son Lee, founder of DaddiLife. Tune in to find out: How Jim balanced work and parenting when transitioning back into the workplace  What happened when George's daughter Daisy was given 'jitter glitter'  What our research with DaddiLife revealed is important to today's working dads  How many miles Jim was able to run with his pram and son Seb in it   Hosts: George Parrett and Lizzie Elston Guests: Jim Bloomfield and Han-Son Lee Technical support: Deloitte's Creative Studio Original music: Ali Barrett
