“Ready to take on the world”, a mantra of most women working professionals in the 21st century. But are they indeed ready.

The 21st century has witnessed a transformation in the traditional roles played by a woman. From merely being efficient home- makers to juggling both responsibilities at work and at home effectively today’s working women undoubtedly carry more than just a dual responsibility.

With the joint family system dissolving giving rise to smaller nuclear families, bringing up children single handed is posing a problem to most of the working mothers in India.

With the role of a woman in the society changing drastically over the last two decades and career options and possibilities widening, women of the 21st century are facing more responsibilities in their daily lives.

The demands of both environments work and home and the difficulties faced in fulfilling them is one of the reasons why women in India today are facing stagnation in their corporate careers between the age of 35-40 years.

At the same time, the traditionally male dominated corporate world is also opening up to women managers and executives with the shift in the style of management from hard to soft. This trend is bound to continue and accelerate in the next millennium opening up great possibilities for women able to manage time and responsibility in their daily lives, effectively balancing their home and work place.

Welingkar Institute of management presents, for the women managers and leaders of today, an empowerment programme, that will enable them to manage time for handling work and home effectively.

Presenting “Balancing of Priorities for Working Women at Home and Work to Enhance Organizational Productivity”, a program for the working women of today.
