| “He came. We saw. He conquered”, the admiring
words came out in a gush, when we talked to S Subramanian of
AMP Sanmar about the Australian cricket captain’s recent visit
to India. Pretty soon we found out that Steve Waugh was simply
Steve to everyone at AMP Sanmar. |
| To continue in Subramanian’s own words, “That
was our beloved Brand Ambassador Steve Waugh. AMP Sanmar played
host to Steve for three days in August 2003. The trip between
18th and 21st August was packed tight. Steve and the AMP Sanmar
entourage covered four states in three days, covering Kochi,
Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai. Steve participated in a host
of events that included meeting the corporate and business heads,
the needy and the underprivileged and last but not least AMP
Sanmar employees and advisors. |
| “With his corporate audiences, he shared his
experiences on “Leading a winning team” drawing parallels between
leading sporting and corporate teams. |
| “Team up for Change”, read the AMP Sanmar
backdrop for events where AMP Sanmar took Steve to express their
support to social causes. Steve and his association with social
work, especially with Udayan in Kolkata are well known. |
| “Sky is the limit”, read another banner. And
who better to say it than Steve? His enviable track record on
the cricketing field was after all achieved with great talent,
determination and grit. Addressing the AMP Sanmar sales team
Steve said, “The secret to success: Enjoy doing what you are
doing”. |
