Aditya Birla Group has been one of the most popular and leading companies which has given smiles to many ever since its inception. The company has built its magnanimous brand image under the great leadership of Kumar Mangalam Birla and reached heights through its vast brand portfolio that caters to various people of different segments.
It is the third largest private sector conglomerate in the world. The ABG group is adding values to peoples’ life with its presence in almost all sectors. And if one looks into oneself, one will realise that the ABG products are part of one’s life from the very beginning. From Freshwrapp foil one used to wrap food, from car’s tyre made from Carbon Black, clothes purchased from Pantaloons, Vodafone user, to the travelling by train (aluminium made from Hindalco Extrusions)-all these things have been adding values and purpose to people’s life. Some of the things have got associated with them unknowingly and some things they have handpicked because of their trust in the brand for top notch quality. The ABG has gained a reputation among the different sections including people, industries, manufacturers, etc. Even the wind energy power generation is also one of the businesses of ABG. It is difficult to imagine life without basic amenities.
The impact the ABG is having in our life to make it better and accessible to everything is remarkable. Through their business, they have provided livelihood to over 120,000 people worldwide. ABG is one of the contributing forces in driving the economy of our country. Apart from the business, ABG is also facilitating growth through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities by giving prime focus on health-care, education women empowerment etc. And for this purpose, they have collaborated with renowned agencies (International Rotary Club, National Skills Development Council, NABARD) working for these causes. ABG thus has strong impact on our lives and this shall go on forever.
Vodafone Idea, which is the world’s 2nd largest telecom operator has impacted many of us with “What an Idea Sirji !!!” ad still lingering in our ears. Now being merged together, I guess the Vodafone zoozoo will surely make us dance to zoozoo tune again. Aditya Birla Group is changing the way of living by redefining the standards and giving way to newer experiences which are pathway to Technology disrupted future. It would be a great achievement for me if I am given an opportunity to join ABG in future which I will cherish for my life.
Some instances from my life where I created an impact:
Challenges play a very important role in everyone’s life. Without adversities life becomes somewhat meaningless because we have nothing substantial to look forward to. But once you overcome them, there is nothing that will stand in your way.
I, too, have a similar story. I have always been inclined towards academics a little more than extracurricular activities. So, when I got a respectable score in my senior secondary examination, I, like most of the other students, opted science as a career without giving it much of a thought and without doing the research that I should have done. However, I had no idea about what lay ahead on me. Initially, it was a smooth sailing but as soon as I entered first year of college, things started to turn around. I started realising that my interests do not lie in the field of engineering. I enjoyed the fest management and non-curricular activities more than my academics. I couldn’t discuss this with my parents either as they were expecting so much from me and I was afraid to tell them that their daughter has made a wrong career choice altogether.
But that was the day I decided that instead of dwelling on my failures, I will make up for my career related mistakes by not repeating them. So, with that in my mind, I decided to go all deep into what all options are available to me and more importantly, which career options are in line with my interests and are complimented best by my strengths. Slowly and gradually, I figured out everything and started to make informed decisions for myself. This might sound very trivial to some, but it is quite a big deal for a naïve person to realise his actual worth and being able to work in the correct direction. Today, I am sitting in one of the best Business schools in India and have my career plan sorted for atleast the next 10 years.
We may not know the destination and life may not be a simple jolly affair across the gardens but that gives us no excuse to not enjoy the journey. Enjoy whatever small things you can for that is what really matters.
