The Omnipresent Aditya Birla Group-TAPMI

The “Aditya Birla Group”, stands perfectly synonymous with its very name, which means - the Sun, so does the group’s stance in proving it genuine execution and sheer excellence in all possible horizons wherein any market leader would aspire to be. What has been a distant dream for many, has been a reality, well imbibed in the glorious 162 years of its very being. Just as one can always feel a sense of brightness, warmth, hope and accomplishment, all at the same time, just by a little look at the sun, in a very similar way, the Aditya Birla Group have proved and made their true mark in all walks of life.

"The Rising Sun" help me to rise above the clouds over my life.

"The Rising Sun" help me to rise above the clouds over my life.

Taking a trip down the memory lane, I realise that my connection with the Aditya Birla Group started at the age of 16, when the aspiration of securing an admission in Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani started sprouting up in me. However, the life hasn’t gone the way I wanted. It took me the way it wanted. I didn’t have the courage to repeat another year and pursue my dream back then. Hence I had to subside my dream with at most despair and pursued my engineering from Mahatma Gandhi University.

WOO ME COMPETITION - PART B

WOO ME COMPETITION - PART B

Since my school life, I have focused only on academics & leaving soft skills aside. When I joined Dyal Singh College, I felt a little bit complex since everyone around me was having superior communication skills. Initially, I felt low but then I decided to overcome this & become better. I immediately registered for every society/club in college and started giving interviews. I got rejected in most until I finally landed at converting The Placement Cell. The real fight started after that. I made sure to continuously improve & never stop learning. I started taking calls with Hrs & CXO in various companies & with time, learned the art of negotiating & convinced a few great companies to come to the campus. Being a member of Placement cell not only provides you exposure to various opportunities but also help you learn to manage. I had to do manage various things at a time, from calling to organizing, etc. This helped me in planning things well in advance & become better at managing. There was only one last thing to be done, removing my fear of public speaking. To overcome that, we, as a society, started taking GD/Pi seminars for all the students in the college, whether they wanted to sit in placements or not. This gave me many opportunities to speak in front of people & overcome my fear of public speaking. That’s how I overcame one of the biggest challenges & improved myself.

ADITYA BIRLA GROUP – THE GAME CHANGER IN THE LIVES OF COMMON MEN - TAPMI

ADITYA BIRLA GROUP – THE GAME CHANGER IN THE LIVES OF COMMON MEN - TAPMI

When asked to write about how ‘Aditya Birla Group made an impact in your life’, I am forced to digress and instead describe how ‘Aditya Birla Group made an impact in the lives of a huge population, and still continues to do so...’. Despite being a consumer of many products of the Aditya Birla Group (like being a loyal customer of Pantaloons since my teens and being in a family which has always resorted to Birla products for house construction and renovation), I had never realised its value in mine and others’ lives until about two years ago. This happened a few months after I joined my first company – Skillveri Training Solutions, a social enterprise in Chennai, which manufactures simulators for Skill Training. I was to go to a client site in Gummidipoondi (Chennai) – LabourNet Skill Training Centre - where one of our welding simulators was sold for training purposes. Upon reaching there, I interacted with many students and staff members about the impact of simulator in their training process, their feedback and opinions. It was during this conversation, that I came to know that the students in the centre were trained for free! During my pre-research about the client, I had known that the simulator and the centre itself was sponsored by the biggest conglomerate in India – The Aditya Birla group. But paying LabourNet for the training of each student in the centre was unbelievable by the common CSR standards of corporates. Adding to this, the students in the training centre, considering their social and financial backgrounds, would never have had the opportunity to learn such hard skills with the help of latest technology state-of-the-art equipment unless they were being sponsored. The level of confidence and self-belief it provided to the students was evident from my conversation with students. With an initial shock turning into disbelief turning into immense respect, I learnt, on that day, the genuineness and the true purpose of ABG behind their CSR activities and Skill Foundation. My inquisitiveness staying with me even after leaving the site made me collect further information about the 15-member batch after they left the centre, post training. “The impact of paying Rs. 3000 per month for each student, for a period of 3 months, was that all 15 of them got jobs that paid them atleast Rs. 15,000 per month” – I still remember the trainer’s pride when he said this! And the biggest impact it made in my life – Motivation – to become a motivation for others!

Aditya Birla Group has been a silent partner in the lives of the Indians since its inception. I have been using Idea cellular services for last 10 years and it has been the best cellular network for me. Right from shopping in Pantaloons to buying mutual funds from Aditya Birla Capital you can experience the ease of shopping and the shared values of Aditya Birla Group.
