Synopsis:

The ICAN Model helps you stay in touch with what is going on with your family’s life. If you are a father who travels, you may find it tricky to be emotionally present when you are away from home for work. The risk is that you feel like a stranger when you come home, especially if you’ve been away a long time, or that you stop being involved in raising your children. 

The ICAN model gives you a framework to stay connected. Your partner at home can use this framework to support your involvement as well. 


You will learn:

The risks involved if you are not involved in family life
