CII initiative reaches over 10,000 women students across 19 colleges
45 sessions conducted in a month to enhance career readiness, leadership, and workplace skills
The "SHE Leads: 10,000 Dreams. One Movement" initiative by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in Mysuru reached over 10,000 undergraduate women students across 19 colleges, according to a recent report. Convened over a month-long period, the program featured 45 sessions led by 28 industry leaders and subject matter experts.
The sessions aimed to enhance career readiness, leadership skills, and workplace competencies among young women. Covering topics such as leadership, AI, corporate etiquette, financial literacy, and workplace safety, the initiative sought to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and industry demands. Preet Kushalappa Kodira, convenor of the HR/IR and DEI Panel at CII Mysuru, expressed that the program's success lies in empowering young women with the confidence and skills needed to navigate the evolving workforce.
The initiative's success is credited to the collaboration between educational institutions, industry experts, and students, with CII Mysuru planning to expand the program further through ongoing partnerships.
