If we come to think of it we will realise that the presence of ABG in our life is huge. It is omnipresent. I have been an avid user of the brands associated with ABG in particular. The fashion brands like Forever 21, Pantaloons, Ralph Lauren has been a part of my wardrobe for many years now. The vastness of its clothing varieties and the unparalleled customer service are the major reasons behind my everlasting loyalty towards these brands. I have grown up watching advertisements of the different utility items that are offered under ABG. I can safely say that every household will be having one tangible or intangible presence of ABG most certainly. Not only this Aditya Birla Capital (ABC) is the umbrella brand for all the financial services business of The Aditya Birla Group. ABFSG ranks among the top 5 fund managers in India (including LIC) with an AUM of US$23 billion. Having a strong presence across the life insurance, asset management, lending (excluding Housing), housing finance, equity & commodity broking, wealth management and distribution, online money management portal—Aditya Birla Money MyUniverse, general insurance advisory and private equity and health insurance businesses. Hence I can easily vouch for ABG with full confidence.
How I overcame challenges in my life?
Ever since my childhood years I discovered a rather unfortunate trait in me. A trait that most people have it in them but are too afraid to accept it let alone say it out loud. The trait being 'self doubt'. I used to doubt my efforts, my performance, my relationship with my peers. I convinced myself that I am not good enough or that I can never be as good as the toppers of my class or as popular as the other girls in my school. Slowly and gradually as I grew up I started to realise that I have formed a very faulty valuation of myself. I started to actively participate in public speaking activities and trained myself to handle any kind of failure. After taking up commerce in my 12th standard I decided to not give up on this field and work on my strengths, no matter what the results are. And my story has a good ending, or I should say a pleasant beginning to another chapter of my life. I secured a job at KPMG, a company that most people aspire to get into much like me. I did find myself confused at times but never doubtful. And somehow that felt like an achievement in itself. Amidst all the confusion and frustration also, not for once I doubted my capabilities. All it took was some self schooling and acceptance of the person I am. I am now pursuing MBA from one of the reputed colleges and I am proud of the person I am today and hopefully will always be.
