The journey of Perseverance-SCMHRD

Life has various phases which you come to know at various point of time. The memories you make along, are both bitter and sweet. The challenges of life are no ordinary as they make you what you are destined to become! Life showed me its rough phase when my father passed away in 12th standard and all I could think of doing was crying. The phase was worsened because of my love life not withstanding at that point of time. But I was determined to make my mother proud and even with a storm of emotions going inside me I focused on my 12th standard and achieved 83.33%, which might not be the best out of me but still it was the best I could do then. I was not a regular speaker and hence the stage fear was prominent in me as well, but after joining college I started participating in various competitions and the fear faded away. I won some and I lost many, but I was getting the fruits in form of my confidence and spontaneity. I never run from responsibilities and when I was entrusted with the responsibility of being the Assistant Contingent Leader of my college team to National Level Financial Festival Moneta 2016, We won the overall 2nd position in the event and became the first college from Gujarat to hold that trophy. I also joined a product selling company where I thought I would earn some money but that also became a part of the failure wall of my life But I could help few of my friends earn enough from it which was a sweet ending for me for that phase. In all, I have been failing multiple times and winning few times but I make sure that I learn all the time.

The Aditya Birla Effect | IMI New Delhi

The story of Aditya Birla brand and its association with me and my family is nothing less than huge and I'm quite sure that it has touched every citizen in India, or whose family stays in India in some way or the other. Their vision and mission are to focus on each business, big or small with the same effort and passion and to deliver the best product and add value to society at large. It has a presence in a wide portfolio of industries starting from Agribusiness, Cement, Chemicals, Finance, Retail, Telecommunications to Textiles and many more. I can only continue writing pages after pages if I start with each and every moment where Aditya Birla has been associated with my life. To start with, I would like to take on pantaloons. As I was born in a middle-class family, we were used to shopping in local retail markets. It was hectic and tiring to roam around and get eventually get tired and end up choosing a one which was not the one which we liked especially. Then I heard of the pantaloons store opening in our vicinity and heard my friends visiting repeatedly to grab some cool clothes with good discounts. It was then, I decided to take my parents along with. What happened was a shopping spree, and it was not only for us, my mother bought clothes for nearly every member of the family. It was a transition into our buying experience from traditional brick and mortar retail to modern fashion retail store. Aditya Birla Group has made our life simpler. As management graduates, we should aim to achieve such milestones in our life, just like Aditya Birla Group has paved its way to success.
