RE: [MTC Global] [Weekend Big Debate- I] Women can't have it all

I fully agree with her that you can't have work life balance if you are
working in a corporate sector at a position where you are answerable for P &
L.
You can think of a work life if you are working in teaching profession, NGO
or any Govt organization where you have no responsibility. But in a highly
competitive corporate World I can vouch that one can not have work life
balance if he or she has direct responsibility for numbers of any kind.

As regards success of children, they have their own karam, luck, destiny and
hard work. Parent role is limited to provide a right environment.
Best regards
rakesh

This is an interesting issue

Being married to a high achiever CEO and proud parent of a high achiever MD
PhD daughter who is now a cancer specialist in Sloan Kettering I have no
doubt that proper planning can ensure success in work and life with no
compromises

Subject: [MTC Global] [Weekend Big Debate- I] Women can't have it all

Dear Esteemed MTCians,
Happy Friday Morning!!!

"PepsiCo's India-born CEO Indra Nooyi, counted among the world's most
powerful women, acknowledged that it is difficult to maintain a work-life
balance and women "Cannot have it all", saying she doubts if her daughters
think she was a good mother".

There is a hue and cry over her recent this statement on women.

Request esteemed Member's views on the subject.

My Experience:

It is difficult for a woman to manage both the worlds , family and
professional, without the support of the husband [ and others in case of
joint family] . I had a challenging experience. When I got married my wife
was in HP and later on moved to WebEx and Cisco. When we had a baby girl, I
started counselling my wife to shift career as finding it difficult from
being away from my native to manage the family. Being from lower-middle
class family we never had a dream of becoming a millionaire but just to live
a happy life which I follow even today.

My wife took break for 4 years. During this time she completed her MA
[English- Gold Medalist], MBA and double B.Ed to fit into academic. Now ,
she is a principal in Lady Vailankanni International School , Bangalore and
doing great. We put our daughter also [3.5 years old] in the same school.
Even though work - pressure not reduced but under control. I even cook food
for my family and do all other works at home [which generally a woman does]
so that she gets time and performs well. Many times being a principal she
has to slog in the school. She has proved her credentials in academic also
bringing up the school as one of the top destinations for students for
quality education. I am happy I could help her through the transition stage.
There is happiness and satisfaction at the end.........................
