His Challenges After sudden demise of his father, noted
industrialist Aditya Birla, after whom the group is named, when Kumar Mangalam Birla assumed the mantle at the Aditya Birla Group,
Doubts were raised about his ability to handle a giant business house.
With interests spanning viscose, textiles and garments on the one hand and cement, aluminium and fertilisers on the other.
But Kumar Mangalam proved his skeptics wrong.
![Page 7: Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc82ab4a7959cc7e8b45d4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
He brought in radical changes, changed business strategies, professionalised the entire group and replaced internal systems.
Mr. Kumar Mangalam reduced his group's dependence on the cyclic commodities sectors by entering consumer products.
Under Kumar Mangalam Birla's leadership, the Aditya Birla Group, apart from consolidating its position in existing businesses, also ventured into sunrise sectors like cellular telephony, asset management, software and BPO.

When Kumar Mangalam Birla had joined Aditya Birla Group, In the Birla Group, there was womb-to-tomb policy. People rarely retired. And it was assumed that their children guaranteed jobs with the group.
He changed all that for the benefit of the Company. According to him, he felt that if people never retired, then there was no place for younger people to rise. So it was important to institute a retirement policy.

When Mr. Aditya Birla, Mr. Kumar’s father died in 1995, the group was already worth Rs.8,000 Crores.
If Mr. Kumar had been content to manage the business that his father left him and had not bothered with acquisitions or new projects, he would probably be sitting on a group that was worth around Rs.12,000 Crores today merely on the basis of normal growth.
And even at that level, he would be still country’s leading business men.
His Success Story

But he struggled for 2 to 3 years to come up and prove himself and settled his business.
Thus, because of his determination by facing all the adverse situations today after 15 years he has transformed his father’s empire to Rs.34,000 Crores by his Knowledge, Passion, Entrepreneurship, Interest & Leadership.
