We have always associated Tata group with the industrialization & commercialization of India, very rightly so. And we have always cursed how our Marathi community has stayed away from business world (things are definitely changing now). But did you know now a days the vision for such huge company is set by a Marathi person? Someone who was born in ALandi…? I didn't know it…
This is a story of one Mr. Kishor Chaukar who was born in Alandi in Pune District and has worked over several different companies in different leadership roles, before Ratan Tata selected him to join Tata Group of companies as Managing Director. Among other things one of his rich background is working for BIAF (Bharat Agro Industries Foundation) and for 10 years where according to this article, his thoughts were majorly shaped as he needed to make sure BIAF becomes profitable as well as helps the poorest farmer. He also worked for ICICI for 15 years and plays a big hand in where we see ICICI today in India. A success story all of us should be proud of, whether we are Marathi or not.
