“Never Stop Learning because life never stops teaching”

With a glorious experience of around two decades, Satabdee Borah, an Alum of Fortune Institute of International Business (Batch 2002-2004) has recently been awarded not just one, but TWO distinguished awards!

After completing her MBA in the year 2004, she joined Maruti Suzuki. Moving forward, she has been a part of organizations like Honda and More. After this, she joined The Body Shop India (Quest Retail Pvt. Ltd.) and has been a part of the organization for more than 12 Years.

From joining as a Senior Manager, she moved up the ladder to HOD, followed by DGM, and currently is the Associate Vice President of HR and Administration for The Body Shop India as well as House of Beauty.

With the vivid experience she holds in her field, she has believed in being an active and lifelong learner. In her own words being quoted – “Never stop learning, because life never stops teaching”, she has been keenly involved with activities that help in improving knowledge.

While being a part of the very senior leadership team, she has focused on the aspect of skill development and knowledge enhancement within the organization and its employees. She pays special focus to the training and allowances and is an advocate for the use of online courses to learn new concepts for working professionals who have a scarcity of time. The online resources are an easy way to learn the new happenings and keep us updated while managing time as per our schedule.
