116 professionals need to be hired back into the organisations as they will also be more stable due to greater maturity and need for continuity. The topic of this case study is not at all new, in fact it is very common that we have started accepting it as normal. The aim of this case study is to help you have a closer look at the women professional's career challenges. Instead of accepting it as a normal situation it is time that we changed for better. Omana was a smart professional. She was fairly in independent since her school days. Not monetarily but emotionally. She crafted her own professional choice. She knew she wanted to do her MBA and like millions of aspirants in India she too could not make it to the IIM's or the other top leagues. She decided to fund her own MBA program to the extent possible so that she could use her finances judiciously. So she enrolled for a part time three years regular programme. Juggling between work and student life was not easy. Also as per the Indian unwritten society rules, she was already crossing the marriageable age at 24. Her brother said 'think twice. You would be passing out at 27' isn't that a little late?. However she went on to finish her MBA in time with good grades and was just one of the three women in the evening programme. Omana settled down in her life and found a good partner in Sandeep, an MBA from the top league school along with an Engineering degree from one of the reputed Regional Engineering Colleges. Marriage soon became a rough ride. The transition from a south Indian daughter to a north Indian bahu wasn't easy. However, professionally Omana was doing well. She was in the Corporate HR team of Genpact. Blessed with a darling daughter Omana was quite busy in her life. Her mornings would begin with spending some time with her kid before the house would wake up to the breakfast demands of daughter in law's fresh hot cooked Parantha's. 'It just takes 30 min to cook breakfast for your family and it's not difficult' is what her husband would say. The food had to be served hot. Though she cooked Omana made her maid feed the daughter. Along with the morning breakfast she had to cook the lunch veggies as she and her husband had to carry it along. Obviously her husband preferred her packing to the maid's. She had to hide from her daughter while leaving for work. Everyday she would promise herself that she would be back on time to spend time with her kid. This rarely happened. Now her daughter was also missing her mom. She would call up mommy as she learnt dialling. Grandparents would proudly say 'she called you up on her own and wants you to be back quickly'. The emotional pressures were just rising. As soon as she would enter home she would be bombarded by the love of her daughter, comments on the bad food taste of the dinner prepared by the maid and unhappiness of her husband who expected hot food to be served by his wife.
