Event Description
As we celebrate Mother’s day in May, we are turning our focus to Working Moms this month!Motherhood confers upon a woman the responsibility of raising a child. This process also changes the way in which she is perceived in society and at her workplace. The working mother is an institution in her own right, one who combines a successful career giving her financial independence, with an effective motherhood raising a child. It is important to understand that both these jobs are extremely demanding, and to do justice to each without neglecting the other is a formidable task.
The speakers – Suet Koon Lai and Kamalika Sen Roy will try to clarify the difficulties a working mother may have on functioning with such dual responsibility and talk of the joys concerned!
