3. Most practical idea
• At the workplace, the training staff should be
friendly, supportive and the one who
encourages the freshers to have the freedom
to experiment, make mistakes and learn from
them. Trainers should organize regular
meetups where the newcomers can share
their individual experiences, grievances and
analyze their weak areas which needs
improvement.
4. Creation of Innovative Lab Facility
• An innovative Lab Facility at the school and
university level would be the best catalyst to
encourage the stakeholders to have the freedom
of trying out new things that they are passionate
about without fearing failures. That way they will
turn out to be more confident individuals who
would have a better understanding of their
individual potential and have the courage to
follow their own passions. In this way a culture of
entrepreneurship would be nurtured which
would lead to new job creations rather than job
seekers.
5. Gap Year programs
• The whole idea of ‘Gap Year’ opens up a
plethora of all new opportunities and learning.
An individual who experiences a different
culture in a foreign land is well acquainted
with the challenges that this big wide world
poses, hence he/she is way more confident
and optimistic about every possible
circumstances of discomfort and newness.
