CGC University Hosts WNS India Campus Head for Inspiring Pep Talk

CGC University, Mohali, welcomed Mr. Rohan Kumar Sudan, India Campus Head at WNS, as part of its flagship talk show series The Pep Talk: Campus to Corporate. The session, held under the guidance of Dr. Sushil Prashar, Executive Director of the Division of Career Planning and Development, provided students with practical insights into one of the most significant transitions of their lives—the transition from classrooms to corporate careers.

In his keynote address, Mr. Sudan shared his personal belief that “Fortune Favours the Brave.” He spoke openly about the challenges young graduates face when stepping into the corporate world and reminded students that resilience, adaptability, and preparedness are as important as technical knowledge. He encouraged them to embrace challenges, take risks, and build the confidence to turn obstacles into opportunities.

Drawing from his own career, Mr. Sudan shared real-life stories about leadership, personal growth, and decision-making in high-pressure environments. His practical advice gave students a realistic picture of workplace expectations and the mindset needed to succeed.

The session also included a lively interactive segment, where students asked questions ranging from skill-building and career choices to handling workplace challenges. Mr. Sudan answered with candour and clarity, sharing examples that students could immediately relate to. His down-to-earth approach broke the barrier between “corporate leader” and “student,” leaving many in the audience inspired and more confident about their own journey ahead.

For students, the talk was more than just advice—it was a chance to reflect on their own potential. Key takeaways included the importance of building the right mindset for career growth, understanding the realities of corporate life beyond textbooks, and the value of persistence and adaptability in the long run.

The atmosphere at the end of the session was filled with energy and optimism. Students left with new perspectives, practical guidance, and renewed motivation to take ownership of their career journeys. Many shared that it felt less like a lecture and more like a conversation that gave them clarity and direction.

For CGC University, hosting leaders like Mr. Rohan Kumar Sudan is part of a larger commitment to ensure students are exposed to real-world insights and are fully prepared for the challenges and opportunities of the future. The Pep Talk continues to be one of the university’s most impactful initiatives, bridging the gap between campus life and professional success.

The event served as a reminder of what makes CGC University, Mohali, stand out: its focus on preparing students not just for a career, but for a lifetime of growth, leadership, and meaningful contributions.
