Rise to an MD with courage

Heard about an MD from my cab friend! Worked in SBI and shifted to BHEL. BHEL has external recruitment once in a while. Internal candidates can also apply. KG Ramachandran rose to different levels in the organisation by applying externally for every level. Few lines on KG Rachandran from the net.

Mr K.G. Ramachandran obtained his Bachelor's Degree in Commerce from Mysore University and Bachelor's degree in
Law from the Bangalore University. He is also an Associate Member of the Indian Institute of Bankers. He started his working career in 1968 as an officer with SBI. He worked with SBI till 1983 when he was the Deputy Chief Officer in-charge of industrial lending. He migrated to Bahrain to take up a job in credit administration with the offshore banking unit of the Bank of Bahrain and Kuwait. He returned to India for personal reasons in 1993 and joined BHEL. He played an important role in setting up the new Financial Services Department to take care of treasury, cash management and foreign exchange exposure management functions. He was elevated to the Board of Directors of BHEL in November 1993 as Finance Director. He became Chairman and Managing Director of BHEL
