Birla group has been one of India's biggest Conglomerate since a long time and has been transforming the ways Indians live there life. This tradition has been successfully carried forward by Aditya Birla Group and are continuing to impact our lives a lot with its vast range of products and services.
My first personal encounter with the Aditya Birla group was in the form of aluminum foil 'Freshwrapp' (a product of Hindalco Ltd) that my mother used to wrap my food in so that it remains hot and fresh till the time I eat it in school.
Later on in my life when the time came that I got a personal mobile phone, along with it came the need to have a mobile network provider. I chose 'Spice networks' that was quite famous in my region. It was eventually taken over by Idea and I was on Idea's network in about 2 years. The service I am getting has been improving ever since and it has been about 10 years that I am using it and have never thought of even trying anything different.
When it comes to painting of your house Aditya Birla Group comes handy in giving your walls a smooth finish. The birla white wallcare putty is used extensively and I got to know about it when our house was being renovated and repainted.
Many Luxury fashion brands that I like to use have also been made available by Aditya Birla group. Be it Van Heusen, Louis Philippe, Hackett, Michael Kors and many more are a part of Aditya Birla Fashion Ltd. and are transforming the way Indians dress up.
How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far
My sincere performance at work, had been highly appreciated by my managers in recognition of which, I was the lone
fresher to be sent to Germany for about three weeks. The main motive for my travel to Erding, Germany which happens to be one of Amadeus' oldest and important office as it hosts all the servers Amadeus owns and has all its data is present here, was for client interaction and also meeting my team mates working there. From my childhood I had stayed with my family throughout and traveled with them only. So although this opportunity was very important for my professional and personal growth but, travelling for the first time to different foreign countries and interacting with people of various nationalities and languages and that to without any co-traveler was a major challenge for me. Yet, somehow, I managed to overcome my fears and ended up exploring various beautiful countries like Czech Republic, Austria and Germany itself, all by myself. The experiences I had during this travel were not only related to seeing new places but also related to how I can manage things on my own. I gained a lot of confidence in the process and also got to know a lot more about the culture and traditions followed in these countries. Learning about the history in how these countries were formed and most importantly about the World wars as these countries were a major part of the wars was also a takeaway. Personally, I feel this to be my biggest achievement because I did not let my apprehension to solo travelling ruin the wonderful opportunity.
