RIL launches programme to develop leaders of the future

 

Mukesh Ambani-run Reliance Industries (RIL) has launched what it calls the Accelerated Leadership Programme (ALP), designed to develop a highly skilled and performance-oriented cadre which will take up very senior positions in the organisation over the next few years.

The ALP, launched recently, is open to professionals in the age-group of 27-34 and will include talent not only from within Reliance but also from other organisations and across geographies, a company spokesperson said.

The need for such a leadership cadre stems from the fact that Reliance has grown extremely rapidly in the last decade and is set to replicate the same scorching pace of growth going forward as well.

Since 2001, Reliance has increased its turnover 10 times and today, with over USD 44-billion in turnover and over USD 78-billion in market capitalisation, is amongst the largest companies in the world.
