Bio:
Amit is Founder of For Working Parents, a company that helps organisations become more inclusive for their working parents and employees. A former Deputy Headteacher, Amit uses his experience and his training as an ICF Coach to create an environment in the workplace that is more empathetic and human and where parents can thrive both at work and at home. In addition to running coaching sessions, training and webinars to raise parental awareness and develop effective parent to child communication, Amit also speaks publicly about his own personal story, having lost his mother to ovarian cancer and then becoming a parent to a daughter born with three holes in her heart. His keynote storytelling session tackles his journey of grief, loss and recovery from the perspective of a male from an ethnic minority and being diagnosed with ADHD well into adulthood.
