A Japanese concept, ikigai is very relevant in contemporary professional world which gives a clear direction to career decisions. The on-going transformation in the workforce, workspace and workstyle has made it a complex scenario in the employment and employability space. We keep hearing these thoughts frequently in our circles;
a) I want to solve my country problems. I want to work for a global cause.
b) I am looking for a meaningful post-retirement engagement
c) I want to best utilize my skills, experience and the network
d) I want to pursue my passion - part time or full time
e) I have a potential to do more
f) I am not happy with my job
g) I want to quit my job and explore entrepreneurship
h) I am looking for a job change, but, don’t know what career to choose
i) I am confused, want to take a constructive approach to chalk out a plan for the future
ikigai principles help guiding the qualified professionals to navigate through such minds.
We at greenworkforce.in have conceived and developed a month-long program on ikigai to deliver remotely over WhatsApp followed by Video Conferencing / Face to Face meetups. A cohort of registered participants are exposed to the practical aspects during these 4 weeks focusing on
What you Love?
What you are good at?
What you can be paid for?
What the world needs?

Shashidhar Bhat powered by GigTeam resources leads the program. He is building a new-age startup to practice gig economy business models. Incubated at IIM Lucknow Noida campus, the venture is focused on lifelong learning, alternate career and entrepreneurship programs.
