Why Counselling?

From her experience as a trainer, Ms. Koul has been motivated to guide students become better versions of themselves. She believes that timely and correct career advice differentiates a successful career from an unsuccessful one. According to her, “India would be the youngest country in the world by 2020 with an average age of 29 years, thus making career guidance one of the most important disciplines. Within our country, there is a problem of plenty which basically means that there are a myriad of career choices, a number of ‘advisors’ and a lot at stake for the students. One wrong decision and the child could end up being in a stagnant career. It is thus essential that students are given the right form of career guidance to help propel into careers of the future.” According to her, career counseling helps give them the requisite confidence to change their domains with the support of an experienced mentor. Basically, career counseling entails the process by which a student can form a career path which is tailor made according to his or her interests, aptitudes , needs and personality type. This is usually done by using psychometric tests for setting career goals with helps a student in achieving career milestones easily.

Ms. Koul is driven by the desire to be a catalyst of change for the society. She hopes at making a positive impact on the youth by enabling them towards better career choices. She is motivated by a Steve Job’s quote which states “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.” For Ms. Koul, her true passion lies in being a career guidance professional who goes all out to provide that much needed guidance to those in need of it. Drawing from her own personal experiences as a student, she recollects, “It was actually very difficult while trying to identify my core interests in terms of course and career choices while growing up. I wish I had a career guide who could have mentored me on time.”
