To move onto the impact ABG has created on the society, ABG employs about 1.2 lakh employees from more than forty countries, this translates into cross culture accommodative value that the organization portrays. This has led to various social initiatives and campaigns that have impacted lives of people consuming its products as well as society at large. One of the key takeaways is the Aditya Birla Group Leadership Program, where people at various levels in their careers can come forward with their ideas and collaborate with ABG to work towards the company’s vision.
ABG is moving towards a sustainable business for the group of companies, where the business is flexible to meet changing dynamics in the world. In my opinion, this is an essential move as it relates to the reality at hand and at the same time looks towards future prospects. Being the first to drive the industry towards sustainable practices will impact the image of ABG in a positive sense, people will start associating with it especially the youth. This will also lead to differentiated leadership, which is much needed for the world.
Challenges that I have faced, which help me strive forward:
In my life I have faced many challenges, some were self-induced whereas most were presented to me during my quest. First, I will set out to define what a challenge is, second what such challenges I faced and third, how I managed to overcome them. A challenge to me is a situation that arises which possess a hindrance for me, a barrier which I need to remove or turn the situation in my favor in order to satisfy my want or need. It is important to identify the problem and draw clear inference on the impact that problem might bring if not solved in time.
One of the major challenges that I faced in my professional life was to file about three hundred cases in one day. It was a big task as we were limited on resources, time and had to manage external factors to execute the task. One personal challenge that I took up was losing twenty kilograms of weight in a year, this task was challenging because I had failed to accomplish it in the past, therefore made it much more difficult to execute in a longer period of time.
I overcame my first challenge by planning, practice and due diligence. These were key factors that made me focus on other things throughout the day. I was well prepared with the documents, on time with filings and was able to manage externalities easily.
For the second challenge I required high determination, perseverance and patience. I changed my lifestyle drastically, by focusing on key factors that needed to be done, like routine, type of food and exercise. I never compromised on these aspects throughout my day, even if I did I compensated for it. I also took things one day at a time, which really helped me focus and at the same time I would not be intimidated by the size of the problem.
