Mohua Sengupta, Managing Director, Mashreq Bank, says there is an urgent need to debunk myths about women who take up jobs in technology, most of which are untrue and likely to negatively impact the industry and their careers.
Mohua Sengputa, Managing Director of Mashreq Bank in Bengaluru, is a seasoned veteran with over 22 years of diverse experience in IT, banking, and financial services industry.
She collaborates with all group functions to enable and develop them into market leading talent and services platforms to service the strategic, digital, and operational requirements of Mashreq globally.
Though Mohua loved Mathematics, she was not attracted by the Sciences. “While growing up in Kolkata, there used to be societal pressure for all high-scoring students to pursue engineering or medicine. I was fortunate to have progressive parents who encouraged me to study whatever I wanted to. I went on to study Economics. I think that has been the best decision of my life, though it was completely by accident,” she says.
Mohua has held stints at prestigious organisations like Wipro, Accenture, Bank of Canada, Mphasis, IGate, ITC Infotech, and others.
In an interview with her HerStory, she takes us through her long but fulfilling journey in technology, her current role at Mashreq, and why mentorship is important for women to take big leaps in their careers.
