Defeat the uncertainty_Goa Institute of Management

I still remember reading a beautiful line "We don't grow when things are easy; we grow when we face challenges". It is inspirational, though most of us are not really challenge seekers. But the unpredictability of this life doesn’t provide much room for our inclinations, encountering challenges is inevitable, which was not different in my case.

There is no substitute for Hard Work…Hang in there!!!

They say a person’s talent is being recognized when he/she is very young. But I beg to differ. I believe talent is something that is built with a lot of hard work, persistence, and loyalty. I personally, somehow relate my life journey with Aditya Birla Group’s journey although I have to go a long way to carve a niche in the corporate world. I started my career in a very small town. Both my parents used to work hard for long hours to make sure my future becomes sound and safe. With no proper education system, my parents had to juggle between their jobs and my studies to ensure that I don’t lag behind the elite students from big cities. Well, this doesn’t sound like the story of a person who is pursuing her Master of Business Administration from one of the premium B-Schools in India. But the perseverance and persistence defeated all kinds of obstacles that came my way. The same way I see Aditya Birla Group’s success in this business world. This started in 1857 at a small village of Rajashtan as a cotton trading venture. Then it grew slowly and commenced its operations with a small rayon weaving unit. With years of hard work, innovations and business strategies now it is a renowned world-class brand operating in 35 countries creating jobs not only for fellow Indians but for other citizens as well. The Group is a leader in the world market now by being in business for aluminum, cement, chemicals, copper, financial services, telecom, branded apparel, fertilizers, and insulators. This group also introduces foreign brands into the Indian market with a touch of Indian culture and heritage. Hence, I personally see Aditya Birla Group as an inspiration to many fellow Indians who do not belong to the elite group and are still struggling to find their call to become successful in their respective careers.

Why Aditya Birla Group is big in my life- Saumya Jain, XIMB

I was born in a closely-knit joint family and we all lived under one roof. I created some of the most beautiful memories in that house. All my birthdays up to the age of 10 were celebrated in that same drawing room and each birthday was special. Everyday I spent playing, fighting and sharing food with my cousins. We played pranks on our elders and got scolded for it as well but we did it all together, the fun times, the bad times and everything in between. Even though we don’t live together anymore all those memories will always stay very close to my heart. Every corner of that house is still very fresh in my memory and these very cherished memories are given to me by Ultratech cement.
