- Before you take a sabbatical, look around and identify women who have taken a long sabbatical and have relaunched themselves.
- Reach out to them, listen to their journey very carefully. You might need to note down the mistakes that they have done and what kept them going.
- Sit back, relax, decide how long is your sabbatical, give a deadline to it. A strict deadline.
- Make it a point, no matter what you will relaunch yourself before or by the deadline. No delays.
- Now, during the sabbatical, what are the courses that you might be interested to pursue. Make a detailed list of it, and then take out some time to filter them as per your choice.
- Do not allow your image to be frozen amongst your peer and colleagues. Be in constant touch with them.
- Attend as many networking events as you can, it will broaden your horizon of imagination and will power.

- Enjoy the perks of being a visionary. Now its time to relaunch and the resume will have value additions like certifications, courses, projects, voluntary work, etc instead of a blank resume.
