Sher-Li Torrey: Workplace Sisterhood — Social Support in Professional Resilience | Bouncing Back #57

Serving as an abode for camaraderie and mutual support to thrive among women employees, the workplace sisterhood has spread its wings across offices around the world. So, this week on Bouncing Back: The Personal Resilience Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella chats with Sher-Li Torrey, founder and director of Mums@Work, to learn more about how it supports resilience in the workroom.

Trained in various personality profiling tools with over 20 years of corporate experience spanning industries, Sher-Li Torrey started social enterprise Mums@Work to support women looking at flexible work arrangements. Currently, the Singapore-based career portal supports over 53,000 women. On top of that, Sher-Li launched the annual ‘Singapore’s 40 over 40 inspiring women’ aimed at speaking up against ageism and gender bias faced by women in Singapore.

In this episode, Sher-Li shares her definition of personal resilience as bouncing back from difficulty, asserting that everyone has different thresholds for resilience. That aside, she expresses that the role of social support in the workplace is essential as it provides a sense of community, and offers ideas on workplace sisterhood activities that could add value to gatherings.

Together, Marie and Sher-Li discuss the vulnerability, trust, and openness required within workplace sisterhoods, as well as habits that could prove useful for reinforcing social support for women in the office. So, tune in to this episode for an enlightening conversation that could serve as inspiration for socializing during your work week!
