Special Note to Business Leaders or HR Professionals

The often times negative consequences of the divorce / single parent / step-family phenomenon not only impact the children of our communities, but it also impacts the productivity of your business operations.   If you were to look at your impact monthly you would see how family issues can hold significance to your time and attendance, your profitability and productivity.  This is an American corporate epidemic.

Did you know that the number one cause for a loss in man-hours in the workplace is family issues?  
And in single family and / or step-families that person-hour loss is often doubled. 

Over 75% of American workers are effected some way by divorce or step-family issues.

Yet corporate America can’t seem to find the family challenges answer, and

sometimes... we as HR teams aren't even sure of the right questions.

Whatever size business you are called to serve as a HR professional, a “day in the life of…” story of any particular employee can be greatly impacted by their homelife.  We want to help.

     THE BONDED FAMILY can offer your organization:

•  Lunch and Learn Programs for step-families / single parents
•  Corporate-wide HR seminar offerings as part of comprehesive benefits
•  EAP Support for Step-Families and Single Parents

Dan and Rebecca Snell’s 30+ years of corporate background in sales, senior management and public relations with ADP, Computer Associates, Stellent and Kronos has always given him a special interest and insight in impacting the workplace with family values, and reasonably so, increasing the need for the employee work ethic to be understood at the home.  

Through the years, businesses have begun 'catching the vision.'

A large number of requests have been coming into The Bonded Family offices to share their encouraging and enlightening concepts to businesses,   To teach employees how to improve their family lives, 'blend' their business and family lives better, and hold generally more hope.  It's reasonable also to have somebody (The Bonded Family) share how challenges at home impact their employers.   They should find out how this impacts the company they serve.

When you - HR Professionals - offer a solution for their family, it is both encouraging and refreshing for any employee.  You care.  It shows.   NOW...if you can't host one of The Bonded Family events...you owe it both to the families and your management to pass along this website and 'make a difference' that way.

We all need to take our head out of the sand and deal with this business reality.   Let's face it.   If we can’t help our employees be the best they can be for their family, they won’t be the best they can be for our respective companies.

The Bonded Family has begun partnering with corporations HR departments to offer ‘lunch and learns’, or other ‘mini-workshops' on many of the topics listed on the ‘SEMINARS AND WORKSHOPS’ website page you just came from.

While our foundation at The Bonded Family clearly is faith-based, we do understand the sensitivities of corporate environments, and adapt our message to still provide hope, encouragement and ideas for your workplace.  While we will stay generic as to culture, denomination or specific faith, we still will encourage some form of faith based community in their life.   We will work to customize a program for you, while respecting the cultural areas.

If it cannot work, then we can part ways and we will recommend secular professionals we know.

If you are interested in knowing more about how this partnership works, please call our office at 913-488-0026 or via e-mail at  HRPartner@thebondedfamily.com, and we'll be glad to answer your questions.
