Around 12,000 people in the UK become carers every day, often at the peak of their careers. Most never use the word about themselves. Kirsten Hurley, leadership coach and former tech MD, cared for her two autistic brothers while holding down senior leadership roles. Her story is not unusual — it's the reality for millions. What you’ll learn: • Why so many carers stay invisible at work • The emotional and mental load nobody sees • The leadership strengths caring builds: empathy, resilience, clarity, perspective • Simple, flexible steps employers can take that actually help • Why supporting carers is a retention strategy, not a favour • How to spot the carers already in your organisation and make it safe to speak up If you're a carer — even if you've never called yourself one — this will help you feel seen.
