How ABG Has Been Big In My Life
So let’s see how Aditya Birla Group has impacted a large part of our life. This journey starts right from the insurance of house to the clothes and food. Every second car on the road runs on tyres made from Birla carbon. Being a Delhite I have seen the worst side of air pollution when you need to wear masks going on road. There are initiatives which make a large impact on us, one of which was #FilterTheFuture campaign by Aditya Birla group wherein it was shown creating artwork out of toxic air by using air filters made by Aditya Birla Group. Around 35 percent of aluminium cans worldwide are made by Novelis and not just that, Novelis is the world’s largest recycler of aluminium. 55 percent of its raw material comes from more than 50 billion used beverage cans that are recycled annually. Every business aims at meeting the customer demands with profitability. But what some businesses overlook is the affect they have on environment which in turn impacts us. So to answer if Aditya Birla Group has impacted my life, YES! It has and it continues to do so keeping the sustainability and environment friendly initiatives along with it.
When I was working in my last project at Infosys Ltd in May’2017 there was Petya virus attack across world, which also affected my client’s servers under our monitoring. I had just joined the team and was still undergoing KT (knowledge transfer as they say in IT) when this incident happened. I was trained in networking protocols during my stay at Mysore campus and here I needed to work for completely different domain due to the virus attack. My manager had only one line to say when he saw me struggling with the task at hand. “Don’t fear about the failure, do your best and rest all will fall in place”, and I did that. It took us a whole one month to make the servers online again but the most important learning I had was to work well in a team when something as challenging as this comes up. It also made me realize that pro-activeness is very important in businesses and can minimize the risk to a business process to a large extent. I’ll end this with one note that I really believe in, don’t fear failures and unknown.
“Sometimes you win, Sometimes you learn but you never fail.
