Why Aditya Birla Group is big in your life.
Aditya Birla group is a household name, with its brand recognized all over the world. This name is very close to my heart, as the first person from my family to step into the corporate world is my brother and the fact that he worked with “Idea” under the most coveted Aditya Birla Group is a cherry on the cake.
Aditya Birla Group has been very special to my family and myself. I have always looked up to my brother and always considered him my role model. Idea was the company which shaped his career to a very large extent.
Today he is the Global HR Head of Arysta, UPL and he owes a large part of his success to Idea for shaping his thoughts and thinking abilities. He has always been high praises for the Aditya Birla Group. He cherishes the days spent there and the large network that he has managed to build.
How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far.
I believe that each challenge is a learning opportunity which helps one become a better version of oneself. I moved to Hyderabad in 2017 to work for one of the “Big 4” companies. Having my share of challenges of settling down in a new city altogether, with some language barriers, unfamiliar culture and “spicy” food and finally getting accustomed to it, made me realize how forced surroundings can turn into something you look back and cherish. With being introduced to a new dimension of life called “Corporate”, to learning about my domain and totally new concepts at my workplace, took me a little longer than my peers. Gradually, I gave myself the push that was required and managed to grasp many new concepts and day to day tasks. The leadership team, recognizing me and my passion to learn, gave me an opportunity to work on a project that was crucial for the firm and had to be completed in a limited span of time. I was required to come up with the developments in the project, coordinate with the stakeholders, the leadership team along with my daily tasks. This was a little challenging initially, but I learnt the concepts of the tools and thereafter, spearheaded upgradation and developments in the tools with the vendor and stakeholders. In appreciation to my work, I was awarded with my first “Corporate” award. This not only helped learn a lot about my domain, but helped me refine my communication and negotiation skills along with cross culture working.
