PART A
Aditya Birla Group is a premium multinational conglomerate from India which has seen a continuous growth since years and emerged in the League of Fortune 500. The spectacular achievements are a reflection not only of their growing size and scale, the inherent soundness of our strategies and operations. ABG has influenced and motivated many individuals like me to set achieve high standards in life. Personally, ABG influences most part of my life. I am a personable people’s person and an outright extrovert. Networking and staying connected to the realm is a part of the basic necessities of my life. ABG’s Vodafone Idea Ltd has always helped to remain connected with my family and friends ever since I step out of my house for my graduation, professional career and even right now while I am typing this down with the help of my mobile data. Not just the idea network, I am a customer for many of their Fashion and retail products. These include More, Pantaloons, Van Heusen, Allen Solly. Their giant fashion network features a lot of new trends with elegance attached to every product in tandem with the most desired pocket friendliness. Being an MBA student, most of my routine includes guest lectures and corporate events. ABG products help me in presenting myself in the most professional way and leave an impact wherever I go. In conclusion, ABG has positively influenced and been an inspiration to me and billions of others over the years.
PART B
My personality traits of simplicity with the right mix of empathy, smartness and interpersonal skills could, very well, be my one-way ticket into ABG’s Leadership Programme. The leadership programme looks for exceptional individuals who can be groomed to take over the mantle of ABG’s business ventures. I think my sheer tenacity, perseverance and emotional indifference closely matches the character profiles that the programme seeks to find.
I was an introvert right from my childhood. I had no passion nor I was involved in any of the extra-curricular activities. The tipping point for me in my life was when I entered college and was asked a really difficult question to answer during the routine introductions we have in a class – “ Tell me something unique or interesting about yourself”. I was very dejected and made it a point to change this and pursued chess and music as a hobby.
I, being a resolute person, was determined to prove to the world that I’m more than this and decided to consciously alter my state-of-mind. So, throughout my graduation years and work lives, I made sure to put in my genuine and honest efforts to stand out and was successful to find a passion for myself. This 360 degree transformation in my personality is what I consider to be my greatest achievement in life
