Cut to the Chase with Vandita Pant, Business Treasurer, RBS

We are starting a new initiative at Timeless Lifeskills – Cut to the Chase – weekly interviews with professionals in different fields, who are an inspiration to the community of youth we wish to reach out to.

We want to give our young audience a sense of what a typical and a not-so-typical day feels like in that profession, how can a young person prepare for entering that profession, what formal and non-formal education they should pursue, what kind of personal traits matter most, pitfalls of that profession… stuff that will help youngsters get a real sense of ‘future self-concept’ in a particular field or profession and help them make wise choices.

We kick-off with our first interview with Vandita Pant, Business Treasurer, RBS Bank, United Kingdom. Read it here – http://bit.ly/vanditapant
