Maree Lipschitz

Maree Lipschitz and Virginia Herlihy are the experts at helping professional working mothers feel successful at work and at home. They also work with organisations that are committed to retaining and supporting women to make a successful transition back to work, particularly in those crucial first few years after having children. They focus at this critical tipping point, because this is where working mothers are most vulnerable and need ongoing logistical and emotional assistance in being able to manage these two areas of their life successfully. Virginia and Maree are both successful business women who have operated in the corporate sector for more than 18 years as speakers, facilitators, executive coaches and authors. Their business has been built by repeat work from current clients and referral. They are known for their inspiring, engaging and supportive style, as they help their clients achieve the results they want. Some examples of their clients during this period have included AMP, Deutsche Bank, Freehills, IBM, Mallesons Stephen Jaques, Price Waterhouse and Westpac. read more » When Maree and Virginia both became mothers, they were totally unprepared for the enormity of this transition and the impact it had on their identity and career. Based on their experience of this transition to motherhood and the challenges and changes it entailed, they decided that they wanted to use their skills, knowledge and accumulated wisdom to help other working mothers. So they created a program for professional working mothers to offer to large corporations called How Do You Do It - the Corporate Mothers' Forum. This has now been running successfully since 2005 and the feedback has been outstanding. Their ebook ‘Working Mothers' Secrets' is currently in the process of being published in hard copy. They are both passionate about supporting working mothers to achieve the life they want and to be successful at work and at home. They are now expanding the range of programs they offer to the corporate market and for the first time, offering public events for individual working mums to attend. These will be in a variety of formats - both face to face and online.
