There are many skills that women on a break bring to the table. These are skills that they may have initially picked up during their working years prior to their break, but they have honed them to a fine art DURING their break by virtue of everything they are working on while away from the workforce.

Some of these skills are:

  • Multitasking
  • Organization
  • Negotiation
  • Relationship Building & Management
  • Delegation
  • Operational Excellence
  • Resilience
  • Teamwork
  • Self-management
  • ...and so many more...

| Return to work like a BOSS after enrolling in this leadership course... 

There is, however, a soft skill, an inherent trait, a personal characteristic that women on a break have stopped focusing on perfecting.

A trait that the career break seems to chip away to almost nothing.

A trait that they, and those around them, don’t focus on keeping alive, as much as they do the rest of their skillset.

And this skill, if left to wane, affects their ability to return to work in a leadership role.

It is this skill that the far-thinking, enthusiastic, and empathetic faculty at the S.P. Jain Institute of Management & Research (SPJIMR) believe needs to be revived and nurtured in women who are in any way thinking of restarting their careers in a leadership role.

This skill is self-confidence.

And, once lost, it takes a while to come back. But it does come back. For some easier than it does for others.

For those who are struggling with its revival, SPJIMR has curated an impeccable roadmap back to the woman you once were – an 11 month, full-time, postgraduate management program (it even comes with a residential option!), which prepares you to return to the corporate world.

This is the Post Graduate Management Programme for Women (PGMPW), and it has everything a woman on a break who wants to return to work in a leadership role needs to restart her career. Beginning with restoring and nurturing her self-confidence by equipping her with all the tools that she needs for a spectacular restart, like a BOSS.
