Dear member,

This is not just in your case but all other sectors too. In India, people expect one to cling to the industry life long. Any attempt to change the industry is fobbed off.

Partially this is because the people expect a job candidate to know how the industry functions or the dynamics of the industry.

The second reason is people centric administration style in India. It is not necessarily process centric. If the systems and processes are strong, a person with the average plus grasping power works efficiently. However, this is not the case in India.

I know a case wherein a woman worked for long in HR. When her husband was deputed to work in the US, she too accompanied him. However, in the US she worked in the Logistic Department. When I asked how she could work effectively, she told me that how one should work, how one's performance will be measured etc., is well documented. One has just to follow a proces manual. India, such cross-functional recruitment is unthinkable. In fact people may consider it as opprobrium.

Anyway, if you are from HR or any other function, develop your competence in analytics. Analytics is almost common across the industries. Secondly, those who praise themselves for being not good in numbers will not compete with you. Hence the fewer competition.

Thanks,
