Common goal: Suresh Bose, Head – HR, Sterlite Copper Private Ltd, Tuticorin, addressing a meeting of Business Line Club of the Department of Management Studies of Dr Sivanthi Adithanar College, Tiruchendur, on Sunday.
Madurai, NOV. 7:
A successful entrepreneur does not reach the top of the pyramid by chance. He/she should have in him/her three significant skills to succeed, namely, being sweet, smart and humble. These need to be combined with hard work, forethought and long-term vision and mission to take them to the peak, according to Suresh Bose, Head – HR, Sterlite Copper Private Ltd, Tuticorin.
Addressing a meeting of Business Line Club of the Department of Management studies of Dr Sivanthi Adithanar College, Tiruchendur, on Sunday, he said that entrepreneurs of the present generation who have succeeded have demonstrated these skills very well. Citing the real experiences of Anil Agarwal, founder of Vedanta Group, of which Sterlite is a part, he said that the group had made many strides in its industrial production, exhibiting the significance of these skills.
Basic understanding of the business module is a prerequisite for success, he added. Diversification of the business to other core competency areas add more value and weight in keeping the financial results growing on the right track, he said.
He stressed on the need to stay well connected with a business daily, and appealed to students to nurture the practice of staying tuned to the habit of reading a business newspaper to build their confidence level and overall awareness of the market scenario. Stating that a challenging market awaited their entry, he stressed on the need to be versatile and proactive, engaging themselves in group discussions and role plays as part of improving their communication skills.
He also appealed to them to make periodical industrial visits during their academic career and get to know the realities in the corporate world as part of their curriculum so that they become market ready while they moved out of the gates of the institution.
Highlighting the various eco-friendly activities of Sterlite Copper, he said that budding management students should always look for synchronising the business models with the economy and allocate a permissible budget to give back to the society the due share as part of social cause.
G. Sathish Kumar, Sales Executive, The Hindu, Tirunelveli, earlier gave a brief introduction on the BL Club activities. Dr Tamilarasan, Head of the Department was also present.
