Sarah-

Awesome article that really hits home. My wife stays at home and she was lvoing your thoughts. With the current economy and even into the future, more MILHs will be needed. Moms are the most organized project managers who have both the people management and project management skills accomplishing the daily “to-dos” that need to run a household and for those who are hybrid…deliver their services to their customers. Sorry Dads/Husbands, the stay at home and hybrid moms and the full-time moms who work complete us in every way and we should appreciate that. I look forward to more posts about MILH and how we can get them hired into so it works for everyone.

Karla – Thanks! Absolutely- I am a true believer if you want something bad enough you can have it!

Matt – I know! Unfortunately, I would be fired if I was a full time SAHM – not that good at all the domestic stuff like cooking, cleaning, etc. Having a shower/gym area is great…having a culture that allows that to actually be used – amazing! (priceless would have been just too cheesy)

Carol – Thank you – it is hard to push to people that just don’t get it. I hope as it becomes more acceptable – they will start to relax and consider the options.

What a great post! I’ve been working with my hiring managers for years trying to push this idea. I truly hope this catches on more in more corporations.

Sarah – The average stay at home parent would make $120,000 a year if they were actually compensated for their work. I don’t know many men that could balance the activities that MILHs do. I like the part about being able to hit the gym or taking a hot shower to contemplate a tough decision, I’m going to put a full bathroom in our new office after we move out of our temp space!

I enjoyed the post. It should serve as fuel and inspiration for moms to market themselves creatively and strategically to companies willing to flex employee agreements. ~Karla

Gretchen – What is the name of her company? It would be great if you could list a link to her website. I also believe that the project oriented people is where we are going to see careers move in general – not just for MILH’s

Kelly – Thank you so much – you can check out my regular blog on ERE at http://community.ere.net/blogs/gen-yd/ and coming soon – I will be starting up a blog on HR Technology…
