ABG Woo Me Competition- Part B
“And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.” - Haruki Murakami
ABG - It's bound to affect you in one way or another! - Shreyas Apte, IIM Sirmaur
There are more than sixty conglomerates in India. However, very few of them have succeeded in making a positive impact on the life of a common man. I would like to take this opportunity to write about one such conglomerate that operates in so many important business sectors, that it is bound to affect every single person in one way or another. Yes, I am writing about the Aditya Birla Group.
Aditya Birla Group- Strengthening the roots since ever- TAPMI
Aditya Birla, a company whose name we associate with almost every other product that we use in our daily lives. Be it fashion, retail, telecom, lifestyle, metals, or others, there is almost no major industry that the company has left untouched. Not only does the group enters such businesses but performs in all such segments immensely well. Spanning a total of 34 countries and giving employment to approximately 1,20,000 employees, ABG has made an impact almost over each person’s life, whether big or small.
No Gain without pain
I think one of the most distinguishing characteristics in me is the diversity of experiences, I possess. My father, being an employee of government, meant we had to move around India almost every two years which meant exposure to various cultures,traditions and languages. This has made me a person with ethics and perseverance. Nothing could have gone better than getting my first job in Capgemini after my graduation in Electrical Engineering from ITER. While being in a diverse environment has been apparent throughout my life, it is in Capgemini that my awareness of multiple cultures, to break stereotypes, overcoming language barriers was most reinforced.
