Great to see this happening in Mumbai, India. I was searching on the web to see what to write this week and found an interesting loads of information about an organization called AVTAR Career Creators & FLEXI Careers India are doing a
novel initiative of re-skilling women to suit work place and they have named
this concept as “The Segue Sessions”. If you are in Mumbai you should make a
note of this. I guess its need to be appreciated. I am just copy pasting the data for your to have the full download. Do visit www.avtariwin.com/seguesessions
for more information. Will write about the same very shortly post my research on
them. Recently FLEXI Careers have successfully done a similar sessions in
Chennai, India and some of them I found on the web :
The Segue Sessions is a professional development and networking program for second careers women. It is estimated that there are over 12 lakh Indian urban women who are looking for work-life integrated careers. This event aims to leverage the lost talent and experiences of women professionals who leave their careers due to lack of sustainability.
