Big in your Life! Mitesh Baheti, NMIMS Mumbai

How you overcame challenges to achieve your ambitions in life so far ?

During my work tenure, I wanted the company to register itself as a seller on the E-Commerce platform - Myntra. I had a discussion with the heads and seniors of the company but they were very reluctant, citing reasons of high commission and loosing exclusivity of its own website. I had difficulty in understanding this stand of theirs and thus studied and created a database of different brands that were in a similar position as ours and produced them in front of the heads. I also studied the brands that were currently listed and tried to get in touch with them so that I could get some more information which would help me in taking an informed decision and would convince the heads. Though they weren’t very convinced, and irritated by my continuous push for it, they gave me three months trial period within which they wanted results. I had to work with limited resources which kept me on my feet. Along with it, I had my normal duties to fulfill. I feared that failing in this task would lead to a bad image and subsequently would not get a free hand in executing activities that I had wanted to. Though the odds were against, I kept persevering. Eventually the results too followed. I learned that believing and persevering goes hand in hand. To give it all in something you believe and strive for the results that drive you to be the best. The challenge was not just to ensure results but also to ensure that the management has faith in me. Subsequently once the confidence of the management grew, I was handed over the online sales department.
