UPSKILL. RETURN TO WORK. LET NOTHING STAND IN YOUR WAY.

With so much talk about upskilling and learning new skills before paving the way for a second career, it might be intimidating to think about what lies ahead.

On the contrary, it should act as a boost to restart your journey armed with a postgraduate degree from SPJIMR!

 5 Reasons to Upskill

As a woman on a career break,  these questions might be way too familiar to the ear:

“How are you ever going to go back to work after all these years? Who will hire you?”

“You won’t earn enough to support your family. How will you ensure a secure financial future?”

“How can you think of returning to work when you have a baby to look after?”

It’s easier said than done, but if you want to take charge of your career, then these are questions you need to put behind you, and go forth into what you wish to do.  

Because, believe it or not, you will be respected for being unapologetic about your ambition. You will be looked up for the different roles you play. So, if a corporate career is what you want, then get down to it and make the most of that decision. 

And when you do, SPJIMR has got you covered, because the management believes that every woman returnee stands a chance at a successful second career through the PGMPW.

 Bring in Gender Diversity

An article by the World Economic Forum, ‘The Reskilling Revolution can Transform the Future of Work for Women’, states:

“This reskilling imperative may offer just the opportunity we need to finally usher in meaningful change in the struggle for gender diversity. It will enable companies to move more women into the roles that they deserve, keep them in the workforce and bring back those who have left.” 

That’s more than enough reason for women to realise their potential by pursuing their dreams and leaving no stone unturned in achieving them. At a time when corporate India is taking small but sure steps towards gender diversity and inclusion, it’s imperative that women on a career break like you, stand up to the challenge and make your way to the top rungs of management.

And to help you through this journey is SPJIMR. They’re here to help you reclaim your professional identity.

It’s a proven fact that learning new skills will not only improve your chances of rising up the corporate ladder, it also opens up opportunities for new roles and responsibilities that you never thought you were capable of!

Your commitment to progress in your career will show in the ensuing impact on your journey forward.

A career break is not a setback. It is a stepping stone to something greater, and that will be possible if YOU decide to take charge of your career plans. Upskill. Upskill. Upskill. Get noticed. Be unstoppable.
