Head HR, India and South Asia at Standard Chartered

Thrilled to share a glimpse into the recent transformative Global Learning Week which was conducted in June. This year was special as the event was extended to deliver three further weeks dedicated to reskilling and upskilling initiatives. This year we delved deep into pivotal themes designed to fuel both professional growth of our colleagues and business growth for the bank. Through a focused exploration of exciting themes like AI, Skills Based Organization, and Sustainability, we unveiled insights that are not only crucial for our industry but also essential for navigating the complexities of today’s dynamic world. With an aim to ignite a passion for continuous learning and development, fostering a culture of innovation & excellence, our People Capability team in India, worked tirelessly to execute the initiatives around My Team and My Career wherein colleagues were engaged in learning interventions, blended workshops and discussions to equip them with practical tools and experiences. We also had an opportunity to have our Chief Strategy and Talent Officer, Tanuj Kapilashrami get a sight of some of these initiatives during her visit to India. As I reflect on the success of this initiative, we at Standard Chartered recognize the vital role these themes play in shaping the future of banking. By embracing AI, fostering skills based organization, and championing sustainability, we at Standard Chartered India are not only adapting to change but leading the change towards creating a more innovative, inclusive, and sustainable banking ecosystem. We continue to carry forward the momentum and the journey of growth, exploration, and excellence together. Here’s to a future filled with endless possibilities and transformative achievements.

Nice to see the importance given to learning. Information is easily available. It is the brain that actually learns. Hope enough importance is also given to this organ that has the potential to increase the impact of your resources. First learning how this organ works, processes information etc - might help too.

We at Standard Chartered India had an exciting 2 days of Country Management Team Workshop at the back of the recent Board visit to Mumbai. The workshop focused on aligning and working together to plan the execution of the recently endorsed India strategy. One of my key takeaways has been, how we all can come together as One Team and learn from each other through authentic and transparent conversations. Our clients and people have been at the core of our discussion. We also reflected on our team’s wellbeing as we set to deliver on our ambitious agenda. Appreciate the inputs from Sunil Kaushal Tanuj Kapilashrami Diego De Giorgi Sadia R. Steven (Steve) Cranwell for their constructive challenge to shape our thinking. Thanks to Ambica Yadavalli (she/her) and Pranav Shriram Shirke from Organisation Development team for designing and facilitating a productive session. Thanks to Zarin Daruwala and India CMT for their active participation. #BelieveBelongBecome #HereForGood Mustafa Jaffar Nicola Wood Peter Hatt Andy MacLean Brigit Simler Dr. Amelie Villeneuve Shilpa Shah Melinda McKinley Standard Chartered

I am proud to highlight the outstanding work accomplished by our Standard Chartered India D&I (Diversity and Inclusion) Council over the past few years, focusing on six pillars - SCEnable (PWD), Gender, Generations, SC Pride, Nationality & ethnicity and Wellbeing. Recently we had the honors and privilege to host the Board and the Management Team in India, during which the D&I Council showcased “Lived Experiences” and stories of colleagues from various parts of the Bank, on how the D&I Council initiatives have supported them in their professional and personal journeys. The real-life anecdotes and stories of the Lived Experiences were extremely heartwarming and touching. The session saw active participation between the participants and the Board members, making it engaging and insightful. Thanks to the Board and Management Team for their encouragement and the time spent with the team. I would like to thank D&I Council and Lived Experience participants for their passion to make the Standard Chartered Bank, India an inclusive and equitable workplace. #D&I #BelieveBelongBecome #StandardCharteredBank Tanuj Kapilashrami Peter Hatt Nicola Wood Ankur Khurana Aditya Mandloi Gaurav Rajput Gaurav Maheshwari Vinod Patil Nitin Chengappa Tapobroto Sarkar Angel Sivan Zuzar Tinwalla Prashant Shah Ajay Gundgurthi Sandeep Shandilya Aakriti Pandit Ruchira Pandey Pervin Kandawalla Neha Saxena (Tripathi) Deepti Mohan Alisha Dhopade Chandan Kumar Priya Raghunath Melissa S.

I am incredibly proud to share that we at Standard Chartered India, are taking significant strides in embracing diversity and inclusion. Fostering an inclusive environment is not just a goal, but a responsibility we hold dearly. Few years back we had introduced accessible banking services in sign language via video banking for our hearing -impaired customers. This initiative aims to ensure that everyone, regardless of their abilities, has access to our services in the most seamless manner. To strengthen our support for our colleagues, I am happy to share that we have launched Reasonable Work Accommodation guidelines to provide special benefits for colleagues with disabilities. One such benefit under this umbrella is financial support to purchase or replace their personal assistive devices. This is a small yet impactful step towards empowering our colleagues to thrive. We are forever committed to creating an inclusive space for our colleagues through awareness session and sensitization programs to create a culture where everyone feels valued and included.

Approximately 75% of menopausal women experience symptoms, while around 25% experience serious symptoms, often adversely affecting their personal and working lives. In some instances, the severity of menopausal symptoms can result in women choosing to leave their jobs. Aligned to the research findings, within the bank, over a quarter of menopausal women surveyed said that, due to actively experiencing menopause, they are less likely to apply for a promotion or take on extra responsibilities. Menopausal women are a fast-growing demographic in the workplace, yet they're often faced with a lack of awareness of the issues they're grappling with and are not supported by employers and colleagues. At Standard Chartered Bank, we are proud to share our menopause support program as a key component of our employee wellbeing initiative. At Standard Chartered Bank, we are dedicated to fostering a workplace culture that prioritizes the physical, mental, and emotional health of all our employees, and we believe that supporting women during their menopausal transition is an essential part of that commitment. Menopause is not just a women’s issue. At the bank, we aim to improve the day-to-day experience of our employees so we can bring our best selves to work. Whether we experience it firsthand or not, the menopause transition affects everyone. We are changing the narrative by openly discussing menopause, raising awareness of its signs and symptoms, and providing the necessary support and resources. Some of our initiatives include: 1. Offering Menopause Counselling Support through our Employee Assistance Program 2. Hosting Educational Webinars 3. Amplifying voices of our colleagues through awareness campaigns 4. Providing a dedicated Menopause inclusion and Well-being Conversation Guide 5. Launching e-learning modules to demystify menopause in the workplace Be a part of a progressive and menopause confident workplace, know more about a career with us: https://bit.ly/3I5aKZx #BelieveBelongBecome #LifeAtSC #StandardChartered #MenopauseSupport
