SOME OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVES I HAVE WORKED WITH
The first CEO was a senior officer from the army. As all army officers he was a strict disciplinarian. He was with the organisation during Emergency. He was very particular thatall people should be inside the factory before the siren went off i.e before 8am. He had instructed the gates should be closed and any on coming after the siren should not be allowed however high he is in the hierarchy. Late comers should apply half-a-day's leave and come for the afternoon session. But this boomeranged on him. All of us used to work beyond 4.30 pm voluntarily to complete our work. He used to hold meetings after 4.30 pm which used to go up to 8.30pm and sometimes beyond. We refused to attend meetings after 4.30 pm giving one excuse or the other. He just could not do anything. Finally he relented and gave a grace time of five minutes which means we should reach by 8.05 am.He retired soon after Emergency.
