Dear All, It was during the Leadership Development Program in my organization where I felt the need to pursue a professional course in HR. One of the coaches was a gentleman who is an XLRI alumnus and heads the L&D department in our company. He holds a PhD in psychology and influenced me to a great extent.
Intent Behind Creating a New Discussion
I am a professional with close to 12 years of experience. My graduation and post-graduation have been through distance education programs since I started working in a reputed BPO after my 12th standard. After working in the BPO sector for close to 9 years, where I grew to a Manager rank, I forayed into recruitments and am currently handling PAN India hiring for a leading IT and ITES company in the BPO space. Since I like my current job and I am pretty good at it, I was wondering what else I can do from an academic perspective to add more value to my profile. The Leadership session gave me food for thought that I may be lacking the academic edge to reach a certain level in my career in the next 10-15 years. I may be wrong, but that is the whole intent of starting a discussion.
Most of the searches indicated that a regular graduation is a must for pursuing an Executive MBA in HR. I am also Six Sigma Green Belt trained and certified.
I look forward to hearing your suggestions.
Regards!
From India, Delhi

Thank you for your response, Dinesh. I appreciate it. SWOT analysis and career road mapping are activities I have already undertaken. However, my primary focus is on enhancing my academic qualifications. It is important to note that my goal is not solely to enhance my profile by adding academic achievements. I completely agree with you on the significance of developing analytical skills through daily work experiences.
I am concerned that a lack of a strong academic background may hinder my progression to higher levels within the HR department. If this could potentially be a barrier, I would like to take proactive steps now to prevent such a situation from arising.
Best regards,
