Suman Amitav Satpathy is a Career Counsellor who believes in sharing her knowledge and experience with students in order to guide them towards a planned and successful future.
‘Knowledge and Experience become worthy when shared’, is the guiding philosophy of Suman’s work. Holding a Post Graduate degree in Science and a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (IT), Suman pursued a bright career in the corporate field. Being trained with powerhouses like Larsen and Toubro Ltd, Kansbahal, Odisha and OCL India Ltd Rajgangpur, Odisha, gave her tremendous exposure and insights about work culture and ethics. Her love for working with people and understanding their needs paved way to become a HR assistant in Aptec Ltd, Hyderabad. This work experience has strategically enabled her to identify the skills that are practically needed in the workplace, which she believes can be disseminated and gradually developed in students.
Her work experience in Aptec acted as a bridge for her, to switch her attention to the education field for fulfilling her passion to work with young minds. Thus apart from her remarkable experience in management, she has an impressive record in the education industry with over 13 years of teaching experience. A decade of working hands-on with students helped her develop a rapport and understanding of student’s needs which are great assets to any Career Counsellor. Her work methodology is to focus on the individualistic needs. As she quotes “When we pay keen attention to an individual’s personality, need and potential, and guide them in the career path accordingly, the child has a greater opportunity to shine because the work is cohesive to their interests”. She is a firm believer of career guidance and reiterates the same by inculcating soft skills in students to help them think out of the box. Above all she is always at the forefront of providing counselling according to each individual’s need and potential.
