Q/ How will the job market evolve?
A/ The geopolitical uncertainties would prevail in the short run. Accordingly, the type of recruitment would be focused on how the developed economies would be doing. If there is an improvement in the atmosphere that inspires confidence, it would lead to better recruitment cycles and hence work moving to India.
In the medium term, the most important challenge for educational institutions, corporations and governments will be: how do we equip our graduates to reskill in terms of not only technology but also organising the firm going forward. This would help develop both resilient employees as well as resilient organisations. Here is where the impetus is required from the management schools as well as technology schools. This is where foresight coupled with changes in curricula is important. Experimentation at the b-school level by being laboratories for the organisations would help pave the way forward. Collaboration should increase between technology schools, b-schools and universities going forward. We cannot have a strong India without resilient organisations and resilient workforce.
Then, in the long run, we need to focus on the values that individuals should live by. These values should help produce enduring societies and ecosystems.
Q/ What are some of the features of a market like India that b-schools need to keep in mind?

William Dalrymple goes further back
Indian readers have long known William Dalrymple as the chronicler nonpareil of India in the early years of the British raj. His latest book, The Golden Road, is a striking departure, since it takes him to a period from about the third century BC to the 12th-13th centuries CE.
The bleat from the street
What with all the apps delivering straight to one’s doorstep, the supermarkets, the food halls and even the occasional (super-expensive) pop-up thela (cart) offering the woke from field-to-fork option, the good old veggie-market/mandi has fallen off my regular beat.

Upgrade your jeans
If you don’t live in the top four-five northern states of India, winter means little else than a pair of jeans. I live in Mumbai, where only mad people wear jeans throughout the year. High temperatures and extreme levels of humidity ensure we go to work in mulmul salwars, cotton pants, or, if you are lucky like me, wear shorts every day.
