Engineering was such a rage back then, that having a costly cell phone will automatically make you the most attractive in the college. Well, the same immaturity of mine had forced my dad to buy me a phone. Now, comes another important thing in looking ‘cool’ i.e, a fancy phone number with a good internet connection. I did not find any other option better than ‘Idea’, which was and still the biggest company in the telecom industry. On the cover of the sim card, I could see the brand ‘Aditya Birla Group’ which made me realize that it is one of the biggest conglomerates in our country. It is obvious that I would have encountered another ABG product i.e., ‘Ultra Tech Cement’ the third largest producer of cement globally. The other common influence on the youth is the Fashion and Retail chain of the group, where you will find options catering to the needs of all the sections of society. Trendy clothes are no more a privilege of the higher income people, it all became possible with companies like Aditya Birla Group. Aditya Birla Group with 50 years of history, operating in 34 countries and five continents with businesses in almost 11 completely different sectors, has a ubiquitous influence on almost all the citizens of our country.
Part – B
At the heart of the Aditya Birla Group, Leadership program are leaders who drive to make an impact, irrespective of what challenges they face.
Life without challenges is monotonous. I had the constant urge to develop myself and work on my communication skills. The only solution is to speak more and more. Knowing the importance of communication and networking, I decided to put all my heart, inhibitions in the back seat and just face the situations with confidence. I use to read newspapers loudly, speak to myself in front of mirrors, and many other ways to overcome stuttering. I knew that I have the confidence and content to speak but was waiting for an opportunity to break the ice. Started to participate in college MUN’s, gave presentations, organizing fests and lot more, which gave me a chance to just speak to people. Gradually, I picked up, and now, I am pursuing my dream of doing MBA and marching ahead to become a successful manager which requires good communication skills and the ability to attract people with your words. I feel immensely proud to reach where I’m today and still have a long way to go. There were many inspiring personalities who just made my problem look insignificant from theirs and proved that nothing could stop when you have the will to achieve.
