“This common purpose creates a shared identity for every old and new member of Reliance Family. It strengthens their sense of belonging and their feeling of pride in working for one of the world’s great companies,” he added.

Mr Ambani added that Covid has taught some important lessons. “The first lesson is health first. Covid has made all of us more health conscious and fitness conscious. Health is true wealth. “We have now begun to realise it more acutely than ever before,” he added.

The second lesson is safety first, he said. “The pandemic has taught us that the safety of each and every one is inseparably linked to safety of all. In other words, no one is fully safe in this world unless all of us are fully vaccinated with vaccines that work,” Mr Ambani said.

The third lesson, Mr Ambani said, is family first. “At Reliance, our families are the greatest sources of our strength for each and every one of us. “During the pandemic, work from home has enabled all of us to spend more quality time with our children, spouse and parents. In future, technology will offer even more exciting ways of Hybrid and Virtual Work,” Mr Ambani said.

“Which means, we can work more efficiently and also devote more time to our families and friends. We can also invest greater amounts of time for cultivating our interests and for enjoying intimacy with nature. This will provide us an opportunity to create an even better work-life balance by focusing on things that matter the most,” he added.
