Show Notes

Promotions hinge on a single early step. When the first jump to manager tilts, pay and titles drift for years. This documentary explainer follows how the “broken rung,” leave design, RTO rules, and childcare access shape careers for mothers, with the sharpest toll on Black women and Latinas. You get a clear playbook: written criteria, audited slates, real sponsorship, paid leave that people can use, flexible paths that stay promotion-eligible, and a quarterly scorecard leaders sign. The goal is simple and measurable. Turn invisible care into visible value so mothers advance on evidence, not hours in the room.
