BBA student suffers 50% burns in acid attack by female college mate in Jabalpur; accused held
BHOPAL: A Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) girl student has sustained around 50% burn injuries in an acid attack allegedly by her female college mate-childhood friend in Jabalpur district of Madhya Pradesh. The incident happened in Awadhpuri Colony under Gwarighat police station area at around 8 pm on Sunday, when the accused girl Ishita Sahu (22) reached outside the house of Shraddha Das (23) and called her outside. Both the girls who are BBA students at the same college and friends since the last many years, have not been in talking terms for a couple of months, over some personal issue. When Shraddha did not come out, Ishita said she had a surprise in store for her, ultimately forcing her to come outside. Just when Shraddha came out of the house, Ishita allegedly threw a jar full of acid on her, causing severe burn injuries. Shraddha was subsequently admitted at the Mohanlal Hargovind Das Trust Hospital in Jabalpur with multiple burn injuries on the face, hands and legs. 'She has suffered around 50% burns and her condition is stated stable,' a Jabalpur police officer said.

How To Become A Chief Sustainability Officer In 5 Steps
The Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) is more than just an executive title. It's a role that shapes the future. As businesses adapt to climate risks, regulatory changes and rising expectations from investors and customers, when you investigate how to become a Chief Sustainability Officer, remember that it has become one of the most crucial positions in the C-suite. Whether you're considering a transition into sustainability leadership or simply want to understand what the role of Chief Sustainability Officer entails, here's what you need to know. A Chief Sustainability Officer drives the strategy and execution of a company's environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives. This is not about checking the box, it's about embedding sustainability into the heart of business decision-making. The responsibilities of a CSO include: Sustainability leaders work with departments such as finance, marketing and legal to drive results that matter. This leader is part diplomat, part strategist and part translator. You become a Chief Sustainability Officer through one of two pathways: a strong foundation in environmental science or a business background with a growing focus on ESG. Degrees in Environmental Science, Business Administration, Public Policy or Engineering are common. Many pursue a master's in Sustainability, Environmental Management or an MBA with a sustainability track. The education required to become a CSO is a bachelor's degree. A good stepping stone to enhance your credibility is a credential to complement your education and practical work experience. For instance, the SEA / SEP (Sustainability Excellence Associate/Professional) is offered by the International Society of Sustainability Professionals (ISSP). This credential is ideal for students and leaders aiming to enter the field. The most common postgraduate degrees pursued by Chief Sustainability Officers are master's in financial management, sustainability leadership or business administration. While these degrees are beneficial, they are not considered mandatory While pursuing your education, you can maximize opportunities by getting an apprenticeship. The U.S. Office of Apprenticeship 'promotes and helps employers and other organizations develop quality, accessible Registered Apprenticeship opportunities for workers seeking higher-skilled, higher-paying jobs and organizations seeking to build a qualified workforce.' On a local level, the 'Regenerative Projects Directory' and other resources found on the Green Dreamer website are excellent places to start. At least five to 10 years of experience in a related field is customary, and some even suggest 20 years of experience. This is a very new role, so the former is probably acceptable. The top candidate for the Chief Sustainability role wants to demonstrate experience across the board in roles at the entry level, progressing to management and senior leadership positions. When it comes to the best size of an organization to work for, there are pros and cons with large and small organizations. A small non-profit, for example, will make it easier to get promoted within and have access to greater opportunities to learn hands-on. A large organization, on the other hand, will have many more resources and better access to collaborators around the world. This is a great time to know yourself and what type of environment you know you'd thrive in; start there. The industry you work with matters. The more focused they are on renewable energy, environmental law, climate science and green business initiatives for example, the more the mission will be aligned with their core values. The title of Chief Sustainability Officer holds a great deal of weight and makes you a member of, as well as an advisor to, the C-Suite. The title matters. According to the Institute of Sustainability Studies, before becoming a Chief Sustainability Officer, few have held the position before elsewhere. The most common path has included mid-level and senior-level positions like Supply Chain Manager and Director of Sustainability. While there is no industry-wide certification to become a Chief Sustainability Officer, there are professional development programs that are common among those holding the role. The majority of the programs cover sustainability principles, environmental systems and master's degrees. Some relevant certifications include the Sustainability Excellence Association and LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). The best way to learn more is to look at the profiles of a range of Chief Sustainability Officers holding positions today. For example, according to her LinkedIn profile, Marika McCauley Sine, the Chief Sustainability Officer of Starbucks, holds a BA from William and Mary, a Master's Degree in Public Policy from the Harvard Kennedy School and a certification from IMD, as well as The Aspen Institute certification of a First Mover Fellow. If your preference, for example, is to be hired in a financial services firm, you'll gather invaluable information by looking at the backgrounds of a few CSOs in that space. Rabobank North America's Chief Sustainability Officer, Terryn Lawrence, holds, in addition to graduate and undergraduate degrees, eight credentials ranging from a certification in Crucial Learning from Crucial Conversations to Corporate Learning certification from Harvard Business Advanced Learning. From the examples above, you'll glean that top CSOs came to the job with vastly different degrees, yet have in common a broad understanding of leadership, the turbulent landscape of sustainability and have honed their skills to communicate across corporate functions. To know which certifications are worthwhile for your goals, do your research and know what your blind spots are. Be curious about new ways of thinking and strategies to solve problems. Then step out and experiment with what you learn with leaders who share your goals. Network on social media, and more importantly, in person. The skills that define a good leader, particularly a Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO), include the ability to learn, act and lead with calm confidence. By definition, the Chief Sustainability Officer embodies change. This leader actively engages with the latest advancements in sustainability, collaborating with experts in the field and returning to colleagues ready to implement innovative ideas. You can become a good leader if you commit to a lifetime of strengthening self-awareness and learning what your blind spots are to lead with success and optimism. Pursue learnership opportunities by asking to take on more responsibility. Once you've learned to be accountable for additional results, you'll have a better understanding of your strongest skills and of the areas where you need help to grow. You can work on your management and leadership abilities by hiring a coach to help you with your blind spots. This is key, especially if you've never had one or if you have been in the same working environment for a long time without much change. When you invest in leadership development, it's key to know examples of the stepping-stones you need to take to earn the role of CSO. Examples of jobs that previous CSOs have held leading up to their post are: Executive Director, Global Energy Strategy, Vice President of Corporate Affairs, and Director of Legislative Affairs. In today's turbulent times, a CSO must be able to demonstrate how sustainable initiatives create economic value. For this reason, aspiring CSOs are well served to understand what their future employers are looking for. According to data collected by CSO Futures, 'This suggests that firms approach Chief Sustainability Officer recruitment in two ways: some prefer to appoint a company veteran, recognizing that deep company knowledge is helpful for sustainability buy-in, while others prioritize senior sustainability management experience.' You can grow and maintain a valuable network by regularly attending events in and outside of your industry. Understand what's trending in leadership events so that you can be exposed to ways of thinking outside of your industry and area of expertise. As an aspiring CSO, you want to look into joining a relevant association or industry-specific membership organization. Networking helps you on your path to becoming a CSO because you'll learn about upcoming openings as well as new initiatives being implemented in competing firms. When seeking a mentor, look for a true advisor, one with whom you could enjoy a lifetime of learning. This relationship is mutually beneficial. They are as energized by your perspective as you are by theirs. You want to learn what drives them, what challenges they're solving and what questions they're still asking. You are co-creators of the world you are building. Leaders cannot ignore that virtual networking saves time and money and gives you the ability to network globally and learn things you can never learn by focusing on in-person networking. The case for in-person networking makes it clear that to grow, you must make time for both. The data shows that being in front of other people in person builds your range of motion in conversation, as well as presents you with more opportunities to be included as a panelist in events. According to Freeman, a firm specializing in event strategy, 'In-person events remain the most popular option for attendees, with 8 in 10 attendees stating they prefer in-person events.' The best ways to find CSO job opportunities are to network within your company and outside of it. Be where you need to be and be curious about the trends at your firm, as well as being adept at searching on LinkedIn, as well as signing up for job posting newsletters. For example, the job resource, JobLeads, includes a simple form on its site on which you fill out your industry and receive updates. Additionally, they offer headhunter, resumes, and coaching resources for their community. You should be looking for postings that align with your experience and that describe a culture you'd see yourself being part of. Your cover letter should state a clear understanding of the mission of the firm and a desire to be of service to its future success. Write about the potential employer and what you've taken the time to learn. Do not write about the details that your attached resume will already cover. In your letter, demonstrate self-awareness about your leadership style and share what previous co-workers have said about your contributions to past successful endeavors. In the interview for the Chief Sustainability Officer, your potential employer will be speaking most of the time, and you, the candidate, will be speaking less. Your job in the interview for the job is to ask questions where you can learn what success looks like and how you can make it look good. You'd be well served to research the people who will be interviewing you as well as all relevant data about the company and the role. Your goal is to leave this interview armed with an understanding of what the future looks like for this company and what you can do to help them accelerate those results. Bottom Line The Chief Sustainability Officer is a C-suite leader driving ESG strategy across functions with strong, evergreen leadership and adept communication. With relevant certifications and deep business fluency, this role reports to the top of the organization. As a Chief Sustainability Officer, you will be translating your purpose into performance and guiding enterprise-wide sustainability with clarity, credibility and integrated impact.
