At PwC India, we are committed to addressing the critical skill gap between academic education and career readiness for India's youth. In a recent panel discussion at the ET World Leaders Forum 2024, where we were the knowledge partners, our Chief People Officer, Shirin Sehgal, moderated a parallel session with leading HR heads on how we can harness India’s talent pool to build a job-ready, future-fit workforce. While the panel shared their views on how educational degrees build a broad understanding on various subjects, they unanimously agreed that acquiring industry relevant skills and knowledge is critical to stay adaptable in a rapidly changing job market as it allows individuals to meet specific industry needs and remain competitive. As India continues to chart its path toward becoming a global economic powerhouse, the topics explored during the discussion are more relevant than ever as they provide a roadmap for harnessing our demographic strengths and addressing the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

We are delighted to share the highlights from the inaugural event, in collaboration with Confederation of Indian Industry, on 'Key aspects concerning board members and independent directors,' which was held in Mumbai today. As Principal Partners, our Chairperson, Sanjeev Krishan, discussed how the role of the board and independent directors is evolving in response to the increasing geopolitical instability and other disruptive forces like emerging technologies, climate change and supply chain. He also anchored an engaging discussion featuring a keynote by Nasser Munjee, Independent Director, who emphasised the critical role of the chairman in driving board effectiveness and the importance of principle-centred leadership. This was followed by a discussion on enterprise risk management, guided by M D Ranganath, Member of the CII Corporate Governance Council 2024-25. The themes of these discussions deeply resonated with the independent directors who participated in the event and sparked meaningful conversations where the participants shared personal experiences and insights. We envision the future editions of this event to evolve into a pivotal platform for learning and sharing for board members and independent directors, who are increasingly seen as stewards of trust and value creation rather than merely custodians of compliance. We extend our gratitude to CII for this initiative and look forward to continuing our partnership in advancing governance practices. #BuildingTrust #IndependentDirectors #Governance #CII Lokesh Gulati

Communities in Bokakhat, Assam depend on agriculture for their sustenance and livelihoods. In light of the devastating floods in the region, which have displaced thousands and impacted their livestock, the PwC India Foundation has been working on a disaster relief and resilience framework to help the communities rebuild themselves. Joining hands with our NGO partner, we’re delivering aid urgently and focusing on distributing hygiene kits and cattle feed as part of our recovery efforts. Despite the infrastructure damage and difficulties in reaching the area, we were able to successfully reach out to over 1,000 families with the help of our partners and especially our Pashu Sakhis, the true local champions, who are helping us deliver aid and are supporting the community members with essential information to keep their livestock healthy. #TogetherWeFuture #BetterTogether #PwCIF Jaivir Singh
