Why Aditya Birla Group Is Big in Your Life
“Ordinary people can give extraordinary results, given an opportunity. You have to train people by delegating authority to them.”
From Birth to Maturity and Beyond, I have grown alongside Aditya Birla Group. One day in late 1995, a 28-year-old inexperienced son took over the reins of a $3.3 Billion conglomerate from his father, Aditya Vikram Birla, a man cherished as the individual who created India’s first Multi-National corporation. No one expected the scion, Kumar Mangalam Birla, to break all barriers, records and limitations in the next 20 years. Today, the Aditya Birla Group is a world-renowned conglomerate with over 120,000 employees and a net value of $45 Billion Dollars. The new Aditya Birla group logo – the rising sun was a fitting symbol of the brand it had become.
Why Aditya Birla Group is Big in your Life:
“What if you wake up some day, and you’re 65, or 75, and you never got your memoir or novel written; or you didn’t go swimming in warm pools and oceans all those years because your thighs were jiggly and you had a nice big comfortable tummy; or you were just so strung out on perfectionism and people-pleasing that you forgot to have a big juicy creative life, of imagination and radical silliness and staring off into space like when you were a kid? It’s going to break your heart. Don’t let this happen.”
“Like a small boat, in the ocean. Sending big waves into motion.” The same tune. The same hum. Every morning she wakes up, the same routine. Rachel Platen had become her favorite songwriter for the past few months. Hair tied up in a donut, eyes puffy yet so full of life, she would quietly slide into her black and orange tracks and head out of her room. Tiptoeing to the door, singing to herself, twisting and twirling through the way, she reaches her favorite destination. Right in front of her, next to the door laid her ticket to freedom. A humble pair of white sneakers with Forever Glam etched in golden at the back lies there on the shoe rack exposing a worn out sole. She bought them from the first competition she won and since then, they have given wings to her dreams. The soles give life to her soul. Every move of her ankle, every break and pop of her bones, every flip of her hair makes an explosion. She believes in herself. She is me.
It is about year 2016. It was a great year. I was selected as the Joint Secretary of Students’ Executive Body of my graduation college. We were preparing day and night for the annual corporate seminar of the college. I managed to arrange for Mumbai Dabbawalas as one of the guest speakers for the event. This was appreciated a lot by faculty and students. Hence, this event was close to my heart and I was looking forward to it. I was so excited to buy a business suit for this event. I searched for the same online as well as visited some brands offline but struggled to find a suit for myself. However, the market was flooded with business suits for men.
