Divided, They Bloom!
Some time ago, Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani broke up and the Reliance group was split between the two of them.
There is a tendency to criticize the two brothers for their inability to work together. The general perception is that they were not being good brothers and they did injustice to their deceased father who had built the industrial conglomerate from scratch.
But that is only a conditioned response.
Both Mukesh and Anil are highly individualistic and creative persons. Since they did not share great vibes, they could not probably give full vent to their creativity when they worked together.
After the split, both are doing things their own way. They are more deeply involved with what they do. Now they are free to use their creative potential to the full. They are at liberty to do what they want.
Earlier, there was one centre of growth. Now there are two. Since both of them want to do better than the other, they are sure to grow at a pace faster than it would have been possible if they had held together.
By going their separate ways, they have done a world of good to themselves, to each other, to the stake-holders of their companies and to the Indian economy as a whole. United, they would have withered. Divided, they bloom.
When a bad marriage ends, it is time to rejoice!
