Dhirubhai Ambani, founder of the Reliance group, rewrote principles of management, and his life is a case study for management students, said Parimal Nathwani, group president, corporate affairs, Reliance Industries. He was speaking at a function in Ahmedabad to mark the third death anniversary of Dhirubhai Ambani on Wednesday.
 
Nathwani said apart from being the founder chairman of Reliance Industries, Dhirubhai Ambani contributed immensely towards the development of important religious places like Dwarka, Shreenathdwara and the like.
 
Nathwani said: "Dhirubhai once said: 'Our dreams have to be bigger, our ambitions higher, our commitment deeper and our efforts greater. This is my dream for Reliance. in fact, this is my dream for India'. What he did or achieved was also reflected in the economic well-being of the country".
 
Nathwani said Dhirubhai Ambani closely followed the teachings prescribed in the Bhagwadgita, and drew most of his inspiration from the teachings of the religious book.
 
"He had maintained that each initiative should be structured as a value creating entity, requiring development and deployment of processes and technologies, networking with thought leaders, national and international funding agencies, government bodies and people to whom the initiative is directed," Nathwani said in a statement on Wednesday.
