K Raheja Corp, an Indian real-estate conglomerate, has launched I-GROW, a flagship learning and development (L&D) programme. The programme is aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of Individual Contributors (ICs) across its businesses – Mindspace Business Parks, Chalet Hotels, Inorbit Malls, and K Raheja Corp Homes.
The inaugural edition of the programme has already engaged around 200 professionals across multiple batches, with plans to extend to nearly 300 ICs in the next financial year, spanning the Group’s head offices, regional offices, sales teams and project sites.
The name I-GROW signifies its core philosophy: ‘I’ for individual ownership and ‘Grow’ for continuous development. The programme focuses on building foundational workplace behaviours such as time management, impactful communication, accountability, and collaboration – all critical to driving both personal and organisational success.
Developed by K Raheja Corp’s L&D team in collaboration with Training Sideways, the initiative blends classroom sessions, reflection-based discussions, workplace application exercises, and LinkedIn Learning pathways. After its initial run with external facilitators, the programme is now being delivered by the Group’s in-house L&D trainers, reinforcing its long-term sustainability.
Commenting on the initiative, Urvi Aradhya, CHRO, K Raheja Corp, said, “We believe every individual, irrespective of title or tenure, has the potential to create meaningful impact. I-GROW empowers our contributors with the tools and a mindset to take ownership, communicate effectively, and be future-ready. It is a step towards nurturing a workforce that is self-driven, agile, and aligned with our culture of continuous improvement.”
Jay Gokani, group head – learning & development, K Raheja Corp. , added, “I-GROW is a strong step in advancing our philosophy of continuous learning across levels. With the internal L&D team leading its design and execution, we are ensuring the programme creates tangible workplace impact.”
I-GROW follows the Group’s earlier initiative, I-LEAD, focused on strengthening the managerial capabilities of early-career managers. Together, these programmes highlight K Raheja Corp’s progressive, people-first approach to workforce development, complementing initiatives such as Anchal (for expectant mothers), Pride Side (LGBTQ+ inclusion), PowHER (women’s career development), Future-Forward Leadership (CXOs), Shikhar (managerial development), and Sheroes (advancing women leaders).
