This is not a gap in my career or a 'leave'. To be a parent means increasing my patience, improving my listening and mediation skills. It is refining my organisation , reinforcing my self-control and managing unexpected events. It is non stop, night and day. What could be better than to come back to a new work with a super sharp mind and enthusiasm , ready to take on new challenges ?
