Good is ordinary. In this competitive world, where consumer and business demands quality- excellence is the only word to live by. We at Mahindra’s Truck and Bus Division call this the “The Attitude to Outperform”.
Many initiatives both internal and external have been designed to give this philosophy a shape. Amongst such initiatives taken by Mahindra Truck and Bus Division, is the Mahindra Transport Excellence Awards.
The award recognises and rewards the various stakeholders in the trucking industry. It judges the participants in the ambit of Outperformance, Excellence, Innovation and Change Leadership. The event with its inclusive behaviour has set the standard that is driving the entire industry. Outperformance has moved beyond the walls of Mahindra’s Truck and Bus Division, it has become an industry slogan.
With this announcement we call out for entries from various players. The call out are for individuals and organisations who believe that they have ‘Outperformed’ and went beyond the ordinary. The Award categories are as follows.
