Dear Mr. Krishna Kumar....This is sandhu here....I have been working in the logistics industry for about 25 years. My initial requirement was to learn from the front end since I was working in the back operations...hence I moved on to another county worked in 2 companies a freight forwarder and a distributor...and I am now working in the gulf with the second company (Distributor of world-class brand in electronics ) for about 17 years and growth seems to be completely stalled in terms of position. I am right now in a middle management position however looking for management position for about 17 years but does not seem to be working. Really do not know what should I do and looking for more expert advise...should I change to teaching filed....I am completely stationary in terms of growth prospects.

Ans: Dear Mr.Sandhu

Feeling stagnated in work or life is a normal that we all need to embrace. Many a times this feeling comes more out of peer pressure than our own.

Firstly, please define what growth means to you...role & responsibilities, position, salary, team size, value creation.

Secondly, do an honest assessment for self in each of the above areas and see where you think you are not growing.

Thirdly, ask yourself what is it that you want to do, if you feel for teaching then go for it but if it is a compromise because you feel you are not growing then I would suggest don't.

Fourthly, take up some courses that can enhance your skill sets.

Lastly, assess your own needs and wants at the stage of life you are in, talk to your family and see if what you have is good enough to live a peaceful and contented life.

All the best.

I am 35 year old and holding 5+ years of experience in various domains after completing Deploma in Mech Engg QA-1year(automobile industry 2011-12). 2012-2018-- Degree in Mechanical Engg. Meanwhile due to financial issues I had work with 2/3 companies for short time of period and left because of Exams, whatever work like service engineer and Quality related work I attended. After completing my Graduation in Mechanical Engg I rejoin small firm which was dealer and distribution industry for metal cutting tools. due to convid these company was shutdown and then 2021 I switched to BPO industry and now from April 2023 to till date I am working in Supply chain Management in Infosys as a Sr Executive now could you please advise what should I do because it's really challenging to adapt new skills with less salary I am unable to take risk of new learning. And also facing money problems as now I have to run entire family shall I have to start any business or what should I do to save and retrack my career?
Ans: Why don't you want to continue in SCM?

In my opinion, you should continue to develop your expertise in supply chain management. Given your current role at Infosys, aim to gain more responsibilities and prove your value within the organization. You may also consider obtaining supply chain management certifications like APICS (now ASCM), Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP), or Six Sigma. These can increase your marketability and potential for promotions or salary increases.

Stay updated with industry trends and continue learning to adapt to changing market demands.

Hi sir,Good day. Architecture in a IITs and NITs,is there a good future for the kid's in India and abroad. How is the future for the kids?
Ans: Kanthi, IIT Roorkee in Uttarakhand offers a five-year B.Arch through its Department of Architecture and Planning, integrating studio design, urban planning, conservation, climatology and advanced digital labs for a comprehensive design education. IIT Kharagpur in West Bengal provides a five-year B.Arch (Hons.) with rigorous coursework, mandatory AAT testing post-JEE Advanced and small cohort mentorship in heritage conservation and modern computational design. NIT Calicut in Kerala delivers a five-year B.Arch requiring JEE Main Paper-II or NATA, emphasizing sustainable materials, climatic design studios and urban infrastructure labs, backed by NAAC A+ accreditation and industry-linked projects. All three institutes feature PhD-qualified faculty, dedicated placement cells achieving 80–90% B.Arch placement rates, and strong government and private collaborations.

The field of architecture in India and abroad is poised for transformation through 2030, driven by rapid urbanization, climate challenges and technological adoption. Demand for sustainable, net-zero buildings, low-carbon materials and smart-city infrastructure will surge under initiatives like Smart Cities Mission and GRIHA standards, requiring architects skilled in energy-efficient design and passive systems. India ‘s affordable housing push under PMAY will expand community-centric design roles. Globally, the U.S. BLS projects 8% employment growth for architects through 2028, with rising need for green-design expertise and healthcare facility renovations, while Europe’s heritage conservation and sustainable urban redevelopment will fuel specialist opportunities. Digital tools—AI-driven generative design, BIM, VR/AR visualization and 3D printing—will redefine workflows, enabling remote collaboration and rapid prototyping, broadening architects’ roles into policy, resilience planning and product design.

Recommendation: Prioritize IIT Roorkee’s B.Arch for its historic legacy, pioneering Net-Zero Emissions and Virtual Reality labs, small design studios and top-tier placements in PSUs and global firms. Consider IIT Kharagpur for its AAT-integrated curriculum, heritage conservation focus and DAE-funded research clusters. Leverage NIT Calicut if seeking a strong sustainable-design emphasis, A+ accreditation and high JEE Main accessibility, while developing skills in smart-city and affordable-housing projects. To overcome resource constraints, engage in online BIM and AI-design certifications and join interdisciplinary workshops at all institutes to build resilience against evolving industry demands. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
