It was indeed a pleasure to attend the “Jio Talks” session hosted by Mr. Sunil Dutt and Mr. Harjeet Khanduja on “Digital India Day”. The insights shared by them were truly inspiring and added value. The one-hour session triggered us to think of a secret formula for success at Jio.   (1) Think Big, Dream Big:  Reliance works on the core principle of “think big, dream big, and believe big”. This approach is at the heart of our commitment to delivering impactful results. The vision to imagine data consumption at a scale of 100 times greater than the current demand in the next couple of years was ground-breaking. Witnessing how 4G could impact the lives of millions of Indians in the early days followed by the 5G revolution has been incredible. Most importantly, the principle focuses on thinking big for every Indian and India!    (2) Positively Impact the Life of the Last Man in the System:  The vision at Jio has always been to make a positive difference in people's lives. Connecting the remote village of Mana near the borders to countless cities and villages with no prior connectivity has been an achievement through the sheer will and grit that each member at Jio has shown. Connectivity was brought in where it's needed most. It's inspiring to see how this has empowered women in rural India to build their economic opportunities through data usage. (3) Create a path for the future - Gig Economy & Unicorn: The unicorn boom in India owes much to the accessibility of data since the launch of Jio. Many start-ups thrive on data availability, empowering the youth to dream big, just like our visionary founder. (4) Feet back is the best Feedback: In the world of business, true success greatly depends on the number of customers that an organization can retain. At the heart of this success are happy customers who choose to stay with us. Jio’s unwavering commitment to a Consumer-centric approach is their mantra for success in building valued customers. (5) Building Exceptional Teams: Motivating our team members to see their work as a mission, not just a job, is key to our success. Aligning personal growth with the Mission Vision of the company has been one of the areas of the company’s focus. An ownership mindset drives us to achieve our goals. The sense of pride in being part of the Jio and Reliance family (the largest company in the continent), especially in the remotest corners of our country, fuels our team's motivation.     #Reliance #Jio #ThinkBigDreamBig #DigitalIndiaDay #JioTalks #JioDID

"Nokia Announces 14, 000 Major Workforce Reduction Amid Sales Decline and Market Uncertainty" #Nokia, the famous phone maker, has declared its plan to cut jobs. They want to reduce their workforce by up to 14,000 employees as a way to save money. This decision comes after a 20% drop in their sales during the third quarter, mainly because fewer people are buying 5G equipment. Nokia doesn't expect the market to get better quickly. Nokia, a big company in the telecom equipment business, saw a 40% decrease in their sales during Q3, especially in the important North American market. So, they have to save money, and this means cutting a lot of jobs. Nokia wants to save from 800 million to 1.2 billion euros by 2026. The slowdown in the United States has made Nokia and Ericsson, another telecom company, look for opportunities in other places like India. But now, even India, which was growing a lot in 2022, is expected to slow down. Nokia's CEO, Pekka Lundmark, is taking these actions because he knows how serious the situation is. The company plans to have between 72,000 to 77,000 employees, down from 86,000. This means they might cut around 16% of their workforce at the most. #nokia, #technology, #Latestnews, #arrabtimes, #latestdui, #gulfnews, #khaleejtimes, #bbcnews, #latestdubai
