BIG IN YOUR LIFE - SDA Bocconi Asia Center

For every Business the most important thing required is the “Trust”. So when I made my investments in Mutual Funds at the age of 19, I trusted none other than Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund. To grow Big you need to grow together, that’s what Aditya Birla group has achieved by giving employment opportunity to more than 1,20,000 employees in more than 35 countries. Turning India from service or agricultural sector economy to manufacturing economy is done by them.

This is how Aditya Birla Group is big in my life.

PART B: HOW I OVERCAME CHALLENGES TO ACHIEVE MY AMBITION IN LIFE?

I belong to a city called Amritsar, where people generally don’t prefer to communicate in English and clearly it was not my forte, because of which I always hesitated to participate in group discussions, extempore and many more competitions. But after my schooling I shifted from Amritsar to Bombay for my graduation and people in Bombay prefer to communicate in English and initially I was not able to express myself properly and get my doubts cleared and always had a stage fear.

But because of the spark in me I wanted to learn and wanted to take this fear out, so to overcome this I decided that I will participate in every competition, I’ll ask questions more and more to fight with my fear. Fortunately, because of my good grades I got the opportunity to be part of placement committee of my college, but to get into it I had to clear a group discussion round in which I performed good and became member of placement cell. That experience gave me a boost and confidence to participate and conquer my fear. Eventually, my communication skills improved. I was able to participate in class activities properly, I was also able to express my thoughts properly. Because of my positive attitude and ability to learn, I became head representative of placement cell of my college and spoke to numerous hiring managers of different companies for inviting them to college.

So the hunger to learn and to achieve something great helped me to overcome my biggest challenge because of which now I am the part of one of the most prestigious colleges of the world.
