Focus
‘There is nothing permanent in this world and change is
the only constant thing in life. These are some of the
famous axioms, well known to every one of us. We also
know that only change brings about progress. In tune
with these quotes, we have been witnessing rapid
changes and major transformations in the style, function
and operations of ECC. What was functioning as a
cohesive unitary Division, ECC was split into four
Operating Companies (OCs) due to the process of
verticalisation introduced a couple of years back.
Significant organizational changes have taken place
since then and each OC is now evolving itself as an
independent company with its own new strategies,
business segments, departments, people, leadership
and management.
Realizing the importance of all these changes and with a
view to keep track of the communication challenges in
each OC, ECC Concord is making a paradigm shift.
Shift from the conventional practice of covering one
particular theme or matters relating to one particular BU
or Segment to a combination of multi-OC project
information. We will henceforth bring out articles and
write-ups pertaining to four different OCs in order to
preserve the interest of every OC. From the table of
contents printed along side, you will find the
representation of projects from all four OCs.
We hope that this will stimulate and enthrall the young
minds about their own remarkable achievements amidst
several other organisational matters of day-to-day
importance.
We also hope that you will find this mix interesting and
useful. Wish you all happy reading.
