Vice President (VP), Marketing & Business Development:
Pros: The assignment unleashed my true potential as I could be instrumental in transforming a small USD 1 million company (who was only selling within India) to become a true global and professionally managed company with export turnover of more than USD 12 million within 7 years, by developing market for company's products in 43 countries in 6 continents.
I could recruit and train simple graduates to become Senior Managers in Exports and have helped a handful of people establish great career in Exports and Imports also.
I have played a key role in all strategic decisions of the company such as expansion programme, new projects, merger & acquisition, recruitment of key personnel and overall organisational development. In many topics,the shareholders considered my view as final.
Cons: As the company grew faster, lot of foreign companies, mainly established competitors showed interest in the company and in 2008, CABB (formerly Clariant Acetyl Building Blocks) acquired 76% stake in the company and the company became CABB Karnavati Rasayan Ltd., and I find that while I have the pressure of working in MNCs, I do not have all the privileges of working in MNCs.
This apart, my former promoters (now minority shareholders) always seek my opinion in lot of disputes and they expect favoritism from me while I always want to take fair decisions.
My role is also being changed to Regional Director for Asia Pacific for CABB's whole basket of Acetyls manufactured in India and Germany. While this role gives me more exposure with regard to more products, I still feel that my geographical territory has been reduced. Also, while I am supposed to be selling all their products of Acetyl group, the local shareholders still look up to me for profitability of CABB Karnavati.
