Show Notes

Our guest today is Carlotta Negri di Sanfront, Chief Product and Design Officer for giffgaff, the mobile network run by its members.

Carlotta is wonderfully honest about her experience of starting a family at the peak of her career and talks openly about deciding to go for the role of Chief Product and Design Officer whilst 8 months pregnant. 

Our discussion includes:

  • When is the right time to have a baby if you're progressing your career
  • Returning to work to a new senior position 
  • Juggling the mental load
  • Being present with your children when you're a senior leader 
  • The realities of having a premature baby (and less time to plan!)

You can connect with Carlotta on LinkedIn.  We hope you enjoy our conversation.
