Making part-time work arrangements successful requires more than just reducing hours – it demands unshakable confidence built from the inside out rather than being dependent on external validation or productivity.
• Unshakable confidence is essential for setting and maintaining boundaries in part-time roles
• Women often try to prove themselves by maintaining full-time workloads in part-time hours
• Finding your voice is crucial for negotiating appropriate workloads and expectations
• Clear boundaries around meetings, email responses, and availability prevent work creep
• Strong focus and the ability to disconnect completely are non-negotiable skills
• Companies implementing four-day workweeks often see increased productivity and creativity
• Assess your readiness for part-time work by examining your boundaries, confidence, and focus
