When the pandemic hit us the first time in 2020, it shattered many industries. Restaurants, Airlines, Travel, Entertainment, you name it. However, like many of us, these industries also adapted to the ‘new normal’ over time. Many of us spent this time trying to learn new skills and revive our passions. The lockdown became all about upskilling and specialising our respective strenghts. This is a result of #LifelongLearning and the ability to think quickly on your feet in order to upskill. These are stalwarts from India Inc who have dealt with it like any other crisis - with ease, precision and finesse. So we along with the folks at upGrad (South Asia’s largest edtech platform) are giving you a chance to learn from their experience. Think crystal-ball gazing into what skills you would need to make a mark in the next decade, think webinar and think...#FutureForward.
We humans are the kind who want to constantly better ourselves at what we do each day. Whether it’s our careers or our personal lives, we are always looking for ways to learn new skills and ‘upskill’ ourselves. Learning new skills, doing arts and crafts, even baking banana bread and making dalgona coffee were our ways to upsell during this pandemic. Many of us took online courses while some of us got back on our fitness game while others invested in their passion such as dancing. The entertainment industry is no different. Actors are constantly trying to bring something new to their craft; directors are always on the lookout for something new to give their audiences; choreographers keep thinking on what moves works the best to ensure this next song becomes the new hit song; you get our drift.
Our next session and FINAL episode for this #FutureForward Sessions 3.0 is with none other than two gentlemen who have become household names because of their sheer talent and creativity. Presenting…. the Co-Founder and Chairman of upGrad, Ronnie Screwvala, and Bollywood’s very own Vicky Kaushal. Ronnie Screwvala is a man who wears many hats. Ronnie Screwvala is an Educationist, Philanthropist, First-generation Entrepreneur, Storyteller & Author. He has been named on Esquire's List of 75 Most Influential People of 21st century and ranked 78 among 100 most influential people in the world on Time 100.. Along with him is Vicky Kaushal, an actor who is known for his roles in movies such as Masaan, Uri, Raazi, and many more! All the way from suburban Mumbai to ruling the silver screen, his journey is one to note. Another feather in his cap is his National Film Award for Best Actor for his role in Uri. ‘How’s the Josh? High, Sir!’ became a well known phrase. Vicky Kaushal is one person who believes in constantly working on his craft and making it better. This is not their only collaboration; they will be joining our host, Varun Duggirala (CEO, Co-Founder, The Glitch) to discuss their #LifelongLearning and the importance of upskilling.
