Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hello, my name is Rita Kakati Shah and I’m the Founder and CEO of Uma, an international platform dedicated to empowering women returning to work after a career break, transition or relocation. Our approach is twofold: we increase companies’ bottom lines by focusing on their retention strategy, and we build confidence in our return to work cohort.

Our work with companies fosters inclusivity by focusing on diversity and retention strategies which include unique training workshops to educate both management and returning employees. Meanwhile, our work with returnees offers networking events that allow sharing of valuable stories, lessons and contacts, and be part of a supportive community. Uma Academy workshops help polish skills in a constantly changing work environment, providing practical tools, clear career direction and emotional support.
