ABG has been a part of the minute intricacies of millions. Every 2nd “can” being a ABG produce, every refreshing drink/beverage conglomerate and their billion consumers have ABG to thank, not just for the product, but also for the fact that ABG is the biggest Aluminium can recycler and is doing its part in making our future a sustainable one. The magnitude of operations is such that the annual recycled waste can encircle the earth 100 billion times, end to end. ABG has been building the future for many through their financial services network. Churning out 3 garments/second, they have a product for all. I’ve always been a fat kid and could almost never find my size. It has always been Pantaloons which had something for me.
Being an automobile enthusiast, I’ve always been attracted to everything moving on wheels. It is astounding for me that ABG had a part there as well, being the largest carbon black producer, an important element in tyre manufacturing, the basic load bearer of my beloved vehicles.
Part B :- Rise Through Alternate Thinking
Fresh out of college, I was fortunate enough to have worked at a post of leadership, taking on the role of a Area Manager for after sales service of a major car manufacturer of our country. Though I was thorough with my automobile concepts, my managerial skills initially were questionable. My first visit to a dealership was a nightmare as I had to lead a team, the average age of which was twice my age. I had to earn their respect and only then would my suggestions/thoughts have any acceptance in their ecosystem. Being in Punjab and having a fair idea of the general psyche of the demography, it was clear to me that only through people skills and earned respect could I demand any value at the channel network. Thereby, I took to myself to first work on the infrastructure and remuneration for dealer manpower. One of my first projects at the dealership included completely revamping the host of facilities available for the employees at the dealer. It included renovating the toilets, introduction of a better meal plan, reworking the salary and incentive structures and most importantly getting outstanding incentives/benefits if any, of all manpower cleared. Convincing the dealer principle to invest was difficult, but I somehow got him to agree. The results were phenomenal. I had my first class in management even before I realised it, “a motivated workforce will work more efficiently and lead to higher profits”. Soon after, my ideas and values were warmly welcomed at the dealer and getting tasks done became a breeze.
