Day Two of Leaders In India with Steve Tappin and Mr. Adi Godrej

Abhinav Gulyani — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 05:25:08 +0000

So here I am Live blogging the Day two of Leaders In India 2009, with the first keynote being delivered by Mr. Adi Godrej. I am sure this is going to be a great learning session with immense value for all present.

Our group has a fairly long history, we are 112 years old, Our sales turnover is a little over a 100 billion rupees

Interestingly Adi is sharing keen information about the Godrej business and they have grown till date. In 1991 we clearly felt that we had to give a boost to our competitiveness. We partnered global companies in our existing businesses, which were GE and P&G as Joint Ventures, though they dont’ continue today. We learnt a lot from these great International organizations, which we have implemented over the years and they have learnt a lot about India, from us Each of our companies and businesses, has a non family managing director or president who runs the company, I am surely interested in learning this. We have a rather strict rule which has that only professionally qualified family members can join the business.

I am the third generation in the business and the fourth has already been inducted into the business

One of the major values we believe in is, that people are our strongest assets. We go out of our way to LIVE the value that people are our strongest assets. We have a constitution of a young executive board, one’s with great future potential and their job is to look at strategy, corporate governance, HRD etc, and then advice the Group CEO’s. Hence we get a tremendous bottom up response. I am very intrigued with the learning from Mr. Godrej. Being a family business, as a professional and entrepreneur, I am so glad to hear and learn about the functioning of the Godrej group and how it is constituted at various levels. Very interestingly the structure provides the company a very strong bottom up feedback in runnign the company and in my view provides them with a great leadership development tool, creating a very scalable structure.

We have very emphatic programs on diversity within the group

Whenever we have emphasized diversity, the talent we get is much better than the average, Eg: if you go out of the way to recruit strong women, you get great talent, in cases much better than men. We have a very strong E-MBA program within the group. People who have not yet done a management degree, are eligible and promoted to do so. We insist on a 5 day learning schedule. I myself make sure that I at least spend 30 days a year for learning We follow a process of forced ranking in our group, we force ranks into non-performers and extra-ordinary achievers. The bottom non-performers which we get everytime in ranking, as it is relative. What this process doe sin a country like India is to strongly improve the working of the team, as everybody does good to work to be in the top 20 per cent.

I get evaluated by my sub-ordinates on a 360 degree basis regularly, and this is only a self evaluation tool

We re-assess our portfolio on a very regular basis and in the last years we have had several strategic acquisitions. We hired a British branding partner called Interbrand to re-launch our brand and it helped us great way in re-positioning our brand and leverage the brand asset value and equity towards achieving growth! Interestingly we have Mr. Godrej talking about the various succession plans in the company. Talking about succession planning, Mr. Godrej talks about what if you tomorrow come down a bus, well, we are planned for it, and I remember having the similar conversation with a friend, while running an Incubation Consulting company.

Post Recession Strategies and Tactics a Panel Discussion at The Leaders In India 2009

Abhinav Gulyani — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:42:08 +0000

So now we have a power panel talking about recession and the current scenario and the road ahead being moderated by Steve Tappin, chair, LII 2009.

What’s happening at the Global credit Markets?

Theres’ no doubt that the US and UK are going to see slow growth and hence if you look at where the growth would really be, well, India, China are in the race. We did go through difficult times in Q1, but now we are introducing the concept of reverse integration. We are manufacturing products at price points which make sense to the masses int he country. Hence we are focusing on a whole new market segment to look at.

Corporations like us have to better how to work with the governments around the world. We as an institution have to get better at doing this as the funds today really are with the governments. We have realized that in some markets its better to partner with exsiting organizations to achieve the right and fast growth.

Now we have the Airlines industry being represented and what we are discussin are the cycles in the airlines industry. Global recession and fuel prices, have hit the industry pretyt badly. Now how do you weather a downturn like that?

I believe, what you need to do is have a very detail and deep customer focus. If you listen to your customer right, you kind of know the bad weather for which you could well be prepared. You hence start thinking on what best can be done with the customers hence delivering and creating the right value. In any industry if you do your homework and understand where the world economy is going will help you a lot.

One of the reasons the Indian airline industry is losing 1.5 billion dollars is the Me-too syndrome!

And now we are discussing the remittance industry and interesting to note that the trends in this industry are still increasing. And what we did as a company is get the slow down much faster and quickly, hence we looked at strategic growth options. We as an organization grew and looked at our corporate strategy, aligning it with the growth and then we looked at investments. We had the following two crucial pieces with us:

1. Communicating with our stakeholders 2. Being progressive and Aggressive than the industry - high level of execution

And now we have the IT Services business being represented from the panel and interesting to note that the comopany went ahead to drive growth within and external to the organization.

We went to our top 50 customers and understood their issues and problems and had our swot teams helping clients and helping them grow their businesses

We went to our partners to look at how we could get the right pricing models for our customers and finally we went to unions in the EU, and supported the cause of outsourcing which highly supported us in generating new business than cutting on any sources/ costs

And now we are in the Q&A mode in the panel discussion, which will be open to public view next. Interesting to share the notes here, we are discussing the defence industry as an opportunity in India. Tejpreet from GE remarks that the new and innovative products which will come, will be from India and China and emerging economies now rather than the west and this will drive growth of the market in the west.

Panel Discussion on Mergers and Acquisition at The Leaders In India 2009

Abhinav Gulyani — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:12:06 +0000

So here we are with the second session of Day 1 of The Leaders In India 2009. This is a panel discussion with a very impressive moderated panel, and the discussion will revolve around Mergers and Acquisitions which surely is an interesting discussion to be in.

We have the resident editor from Mumbai for Outlook magazine moderating the session for the gathering and he talks some very interesting numbers.

70% of acquisitions fail

Company like Cisco which has done more than 135 acquisitions till date, we have the Chief Globalization Officer from Cisco, talking about how Cisco has mastered the art of acquisitions. He says the majority of our acquisitions came from our customers. This is the Go To Market anc business strategy for Cisco. We differentiate in market enetering, expansion and acceleration. Our success rate is 70%. We are very high on retention as well.

You need a culture in a company to be able to do M and A

We also do acquisitions to enter new business models. Our learning with acquisitions is that you have to have that culture in your company and today we have an entire team to do these acquisitions. Last but not the least, its a process. Now we are talking India in specific and interestingly Cisco has so far done 6 new investments in India.

Key takeaway: M&A can be a key part of your strategy and it can become your culture

Now we have Mr. Charles from wattson wyatt, giving the Human angle to M&A. What I have learned working with clients, there is no standard template for culture. It has to be something which is central to all parts of your transaction. In terms of due diligence, if you really dont understand the culture of the organization that you are buying, you should not think of buying them.

I was very impressed with the amount of expertise and process and real hard work which went into due diligence when I was working with clients in India

But the whole diligence was on the financial part and not the cultural or Human part. One of the things you need to accept about M and A, is that you need to be better at it.

Interestingly we have an expert talking about post integration and acquisition and she says, when you are in the midst of your deal, how much attention have you paid to the fact that what would happen to the organization after merger and what would form out of it?

You need to have the systems integrated to get the right prioritization, post acquisition integration. The key thing for you is to get the right internal team together. You need to bring all the elements together with common objectives and right prioritization, as you cannot do everything in 30 days, hence you need to have the right planning which will definitely pay dividends in the long run.

By bad post acquisition realizations, and if not planned well, you could inherit losses and other issues. Hence planning the right internal team with the right objectives is the right thing.

Bad M&A?

Sure, there is bad M&A there, but it is also the time for opportunity. Governments are going to have to raise money in the near future and taxes are the way to do it and hence this is the time to have a strategic look at your group structure and if you have your IP rights at the right places in your organization and if you are exploiting them fully.

Q&A:

Now we are in the q&A mode with the moderator of the session leading with the questions.

Very interesting discussions happening about Indian family businesses and also how Cisco does the right things by setting the right expectations, while discussing business Integration across verticals and internal employee cultures.

Money is a Motivation - setting the right financial structure post integration:

We now are discussion how compensation structures change and how they are controlled and managed over time, post integration. You need to structure the deal looking at the fact that anybody who has set up a business has a huge amount of emotional attachment with the business. What we have found is: if you can intelligently find out the right roles for people post integration, looking at what they are doing, they love, you can have a successful post integration team merger and integration.

Looking Forward To See You There

Leaders in India Business Forum 2009, The world’s largest and most respected series of business leadership events to be held in Mumbai, between 8th and 10th October.

Deepanwita Chatterjee — Tue, 19 May 2009 13:39:47 +0000

Leaders in India Business Forum 2009, the world’s largest and most respected series of business leadership events to be held in Mumbai, between 8th and 10th October.
In the world of business, leadership is epitomized by foresight and innovation. The ultimate challenge that today’s business leaders face are that of destination and direction. It is therefore highly essential to stimulate the minds and passions of the intelligent, motivated and time-poor corporate executives during a time like this.
Our country is gradually positioning itself at the fore of the 21st century knowledge economy. We have a vibrant information industry where huge amounts of information resources is harnessed for complex analysis performed for global firms in our KPO centers or for continual advances in indigenous rocket science – therefore it is extremely important that the information that is received and the knowledge that is acquired must be relevant and applicable to the business and personal goals. Also a focused business platform that is able to cut across all key sectors and verticals within the burgeoning Indian economy has for long been a challenge for many major firms wishing to invest effectively to reach a relevant target audience.So this is an excellent time to leverage the hugely respected Leaders brand into India.

Informa, the owners of information super-brands including Lloyd’s List, Taylor & Francis and Datamonitor, have announced the first Indian edition of the world’s largest series of Leadership events. ‘Leaders in India ‘, is the latest edition of what is widely regarded as the world’s largest and most respected series of business leadership events, which so far have taken place annually in major international cities including London and Dubai. Informa, producers of the event, have received a particularly strong response from Indian and international organizations, with GE, JSW, Johnson & Johnson, Birla, Nokia and Abbot amongst many others already having confirmed their delegations to the event.
‘Leaders in India‘ which will take place in Mumbai (8th - 10th Oct), is a three day forum dedicated entirely to the business community and in addition to providing an excellent opportunity for peer-to-peer networking, the ‘Leaders’ team prides itself on providing the most thoroughly researched and solution-focused points of discussion in its series of interactive audience Q&As with key business leaders.
This business forum, commands audiences of top corporate executives every year, with past speakers most recently including Kofi Annan, CK Prahalad, Philip Kotler, Stephen Covey and Richard Branson. According to Peter Rigby, Chairman of Informa plc. ‘Leaders in India is a fantastic opportunity for participants to meet and mingle with their professional counterparts from both India and abroad. Similar forums in Dubai and London have become ‘must attend’ events over the past few years - attendees have found them extremely worthwhile, interesting and stimulating, and we anticipate that Leaders in India will be exactly the same’.
‘Inspiration is the underlying essence of Leaders in India. And that comes from the precedent and words of some of the greatest business leaders of our generation’ says Abhaey Singh, Managing Director of Informa India. ‘It is difficult, otherwise, to stimulate the minds and passions of so many highly intelligent, motivated and time-poor corporate executives’, adds Singh, referring to the audience of CXOs that typically attend ‘Leaders’ Business Forums.
“India is one of the most dynamic markets of the world, where innovation, business, and technical acumen will continue to grow and thrive for many years to come,” says Trump Jr.. “I look forward to bringing many incredible projects to this market, which is now primed and ready for world class development.” Donald Trump Jr., has announced ambitious plans for investment in India’s real estate sector, and will elaborate on successfully dealing with the obstacles faced by international companies when entering the Indian market.
Tom Peters, among the most influential management gurus of today, and renowned author of ‘In search of excellence’, will provide practical tools to tackle one of the most pressing issues on every CEO’s mind – ‘how to win the war for talent.’ In spite of a more favorable employer’s market at present, the ‘war for talent’ is expected to remain one of Indian business’ paramount challenges as the country continues to develop rapidly over the coming decades.
On why Informa has decided to bring ‘Leaders’ to India, Abhaey Singh, Managing Director, Informa India, says that “Indians are ideas people – we love inspiration, and Leaders in India will be three days packed with the proverbial tingles down your spine.”
The event promises the opportunity to hear from the select Indian and international business leaders and role models, whose words and actions define inspiration. This will be the best opportunity for interaction and active networking at the numerous luncheons, evening receptions and the high profile awards ceremony. Not only will this event provide the opportunity to learn new ideas and relevant life examples from the thought leaders but one can also have their suggesstions for the improvement of the business environment in India published with individual credits.
The event will feature leaders such as Tom Peters, (Author & Management Guru, Steve Forbes, Chairman and CEO, Forbes Inc., and Editor-in-Chief, Forbes Magazine), Donald Trump Jr. (Executive Vice President, Development & Acquisitions, The Trump Organization), Shashi Tharoor (Chairman of Afras Ventures and Former Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations), Adi Godrej (Chairman, The Godrej Group),Kishore Biyani (CEO, Future Group and MD, Pantaloon Retail India Ltd.) , Kiran Shaw Majumdar ( Chairman & MD Biocon Limited).The event will also host The “IIBAAs” (Indo-International Business Achievement Awards), which has been instituted to acknowledge exceptional entrepreneurial and innovative talent, effective and responsible leadership & management, and the setting of new standards within Indian and global businesses.
