  • Executive Speak
    Sustainability Review 08-09 WE ALL SEE THE SAME THINGS THE WAY WE LOOK AT THEM IS WHAT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE At Mahindra we are exploring outside the conventional and rethinking the regular. We are looking at emerging problems through the prism of Alternative Thinking to turn them into emerging opportunities. Alternative Thinking is Mahindra's strategic approach towards integrating sustainability into our businesses. It involves proactive alignment of our business operations to the exponentially rising social and environmental demands, and new economic opportunities. Alternative Thinking, for us, is the fountainhead of progress, alternative leadership, and the only way forward to create sustainable t h i n k i n g businesses in a sustainable world. CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS I am pleased to present the Mahindra Group's 2nd Sustainability Report continuing with the theme of our first report - ALTERNATIVE THINKING. I believe that, the need for alternative thinking is more relevant today than it was last year and will become still more relevant in the future. The year 2008-09 was rather startling in more ways than one. On one hand the financial crisis brought to the fore, issues of comprehensive risk management, need for long term profitability, ethics and accountability in business. On the other, the intensity and frequency of natural calamities raised one more alarm for an urgent need to address risks of climate change through clean technology. Conflict situations continued to simmer across all geographies. The need for Alternative Thinking is more relevant today than it was last year and will become still more relevant in the future Although our approach to business has conventionally been "Beyond Profits" our conscious and focused efforts to embark on the "sustainability reporting journey' last year, enabled us to consolidate the various activities that we were undertaking under cost and input efficiencies in all our businesses as well as our Social programs that were undertaken both centrally as well as by each of our individual businesses.
