Aditya Birla Group- Transcending lives and Making ImpactsAditya Birla Group

Being a Kid from a backward small town in West Godavari district to Graduate from IIT BHU Varanasi and currently to be a part of IIM Visakhapatnam, I was always kept under pressure testing out my hindrance to the challenges and every time I was under pressure I learned not only the art of survival but figured out a way to develop skills and abilities to make me better. I feel every challenge is a new one and none of them is less than the previous one. There are many challenges I could get through, but a few stand out as they helped me to get exposure to the current culture. First challenge I could accomplish is getting into an IIT competing with all the Olympiad champs in a short span of 6 months. It taught me to be consistent and helped significantly to boost my confidence, which I was unable to develop before that. Second in the list is when I got placed at IPAC as a Junior associate and my deliverables are way higher than my skills. As a part of it, I had to deal with clients who hold a political career much higher than my age whose expectations from our group are significantly high. For me to be able to liaison with them in building strategies and to make sure the execution of the campaign at the grass root level was a steep task. To handle such thing swiftly, I learnt to prepare a case as strong as possible and made sure that every input from my side is triangulated through various networks which I developed over time. I developed a habit of supporting my information through statistical/ Retro data by analysing and drawing conclusions that are in total support to my input. The primary thing I learned is that I must make sure that I should be 100 per cent convinced with my thought to be presented well. Every challenge helped in one or the other way and made me confident to deal much more of them in the coming days.
