Success comes in
Believing you can |
| |
| I have always believed
that the most important requirement for success
is learning never to make or accept excuses.
Around 20 years ago, when I returned to India,
there were many who questioned our choice of
industry. The country had no significant track
record in the domain. In fact, it was difficult
to get financiers willing to endorse a business
model that put an unknown Indian company up
against what till then was the exclusive
preserve of Taiwanese and Japanese companies.
Yet, we persevered and further persevered on
the foundation of our biggest asset - an
unflinching belief in ourselves. Each time we
hit an unavoidable disappointment, it was this
belief that picked us up and kept us marching.
It did not matter if that meant challenging
rigid and established paradigms. In fact, it is
this attitude that has gradually led to the
development of a different mindset - the Moser
Baer mindset - a commitment to achieving
continuous excellence in all we do.
We overcame apprehensions about the low
quality of India-made high-technology products
by consistently delivering above-grade
merchandise to the world's choosiest customers.
To combat the popular belief that Indian
manpower has low productivity, we tapped into
the big pool of low-cost engineering talent
which has today become our biggest competitive
edge in global markets. Many thought the lack of
availability of raw materials would be our
undoing, but we aggressively fought back with a
quality-driven value-added vertical integration
program. Likewise, when our geographic position
was being perceived as a bottleneck, we
developed our logistical support with fanatical
obsession. Today, we are jumping the final
hurdle, silencing those that believe Indian
technology is about cloning and not pioneering,
through our captive and cutting-edge research
programs.
You'd probably expect a Managing Director to
say that his or her company is different from
all the others. But I'd prefer to let you make
that judgment for yourself. I encourage you to

company, our business, our culture and our
values. |
