I will follow my father’s principles: Mukesh
By Our Corporate Bureau | 02 Aug 2002
Mumbai: On taking over as the chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries Ltd, Mukesh Ambani said: “For me this is a moment of rededication to the values, vision and goals of my father, teacher and mentor Dhirubhai Ambani — to lead by love, but trust and by example.“
He added: “I learnt these principles from him with humility. With unflinching commitment, I will endeavour to practice these principles. In my thoughts and actions, my father will always be present and I will be measuring my actions by the yardsticks of his expectations.“
“He created Reliance and built it from scratch to India's first private sector Fortune Global 500 company. Our task is to strengthen this position, to transform it and to ensure its growth in keeping with his dreams,“ he said.
