Hello, I am working in HCL Technologiesas L1 resource my CWL is nagpur but I want to change my working location . It was changed a few months back but they have referred back to nagpur again saying because of some policies so I asked for a project change thought it may be useful for location change, it's been 23 months in my current project I asked for release but my sdm is not willing to release. I cannot travel back to Nagpur vijaywada is my nearest location. Please suggest how I can proceed.

“I’m going to need to be remote for (whatever couple days) over the next few months for personal reasons. I’ll make sure the team is prepared to cover any onsite requirements.”
I don’t think you need to be direct assuming you have a good track record. You’d might chat first with you coach, counselor, pml, etc. to say you have travel restrictions over specific dates but the choice of how much to disclose is up to you. That said, I’d be totally understanding if that was a cause of the travel restriction.
On another note, good luck! Although I don’t know you, I really hope it’s successful 🙌🙏. Don’t get discouraged and stay close with your partner no matter what. I’m rooting for you
If the SM has kids, I might be pretty direct about what is going on (depending n your relationship). I’ve had people tell me and nice I know I work with them to make it happen as much as possible.
That said, be creative as well. We are pretty sure our second was conceived when I left the office a little earlier than normal and swung by the home on the way to the airport. 😀
Agree with being direct if possible. If/when you do have kids, you’ll have all sorts of other events you’ll want to be home to attend, so better to make sure you’re part of a supportive team from the get-go.
Actual conversation between my (work) partner and I:
Hey...I’ve got to “deliver a package” in the coming months and will have to adjust travel accordingly.
Partner (male): do what you gotta do
Whew, I’m not sure how that would work out. Have you been trying for a while without success? If the answer is no, I’d recommend trying for a couple months first before making that ask.
Seriously get your wife an ovulation kit... we were trying for 6months and then she got that kit
And found out her timing was 4 days off... we used it and bam next month she was pregnant.
I straight up told my partners that were trying and I need to fly in late or leave early
No issues
