The ability to adapt and evolve not only enhances your +employability but also empowers you to navigate life's challenges more +effectively. By acquiring new skills, you stay relevant, innovative, and +capable of seizing opportunities that come your way. + +The session will begin with an engaging discussion on the necessity of +learning new skills, emphasizing that the ability to adapt and evolve is +crucial. Using the metaphor of "emptying your teacup," you will explore the +concept of approaching learning with an open mind, ready to absorb new +knowledge and skills. + +Next, you'll dive into actionable techniques for managing your tasks and +projects efficiently. Bala will introduce the PARA method—Projects, Areas, +Resources, and Archives—a structured approach to organizing your work and +life. You will learn how to categorize your tasks, set clear goals, and +maintain a balanced workflow. + +Furthermore, the talk will highlight the importance of regular reviews. +Weekly, quarterly, and yearly reviews will help you stay on track, reflect +on your progress, and plan for the future. Through these reviews, you'll be +encouraged to ask big life questions, such as your financial goals, the +impact you've had on others, and your work-life balance. + +Finally, you'll be introduced to the 9-windows framework, a powerful tool +for future career planning. Join us and take the first step towards +mastering the art and developing the mindset of skillful survival in the +fast-paced ever changing learning jungle. + +About the speaker: + +Dr. Bala Ramadurai is an author, coach, consultant, podcaster and +professor. He has authored a book on Design Thinking called Karmic Design +Thinking (). He has 3 patents to his credit and +10+ publications in international research journals.
