Inspiring Moments

Many times in last three years, I thought to speak you. But due my nature of being docile before the leader, I respect, I try to speak as little as possible except putting my points forward required as per my professional role. On many occasions, I felt the need to share, not for my interest but to do the justice for relationship. I still believe that my sharing would have added the value. But my apprehensions was an obstacle in doing so.

Many times, your leadership traits had been very inspiring to me. I can not forget the darkest night of Mr P K Sinha, when you were standing through out the night as True Man. I salute your Human Touch and everything I felt. The another incident, I recall of Goa when we had gone to receive the Greentech HR Excellence Award. That evening, I was feeling very sad due to some argument with HO people. You made me calm to think differently in the life. You shared and told me as a great mentoring tip to learn while you told "Ravi I have always fought in my life whenever I am right and never surrendered." You quoted few examples as well. Your statement provided me the great solace. I can't forget your affectionate gesture and simplicity when you clicked my photo in hotel lobby in the background of sea shore of the hotel.  

You have spent more than 33 years in your professional career passing through lots of challenges and complexities. I have read many case studies when Merger & Acquisition had been very painful to employees of earlier entity despite having great economic value for the business. How difficult it would have been for you to introduce yourself working in Aditya Birla from your exciting career of L&T which has always been larger than life for an engineer in India. I do not know for the sure whether the wound is healed and even if it is so, what about the scar that leaves as a reminder.

Few weeks back, I was talking to one of my colleague ( HoD - sobre and good performer working since long in GCW) shared his feeling that even after 6 years of acquisition, he feels to be treated by ABG differently. I felt sad and mourned if it is true.
