A SAIL Vision statement redrafting workshop was organised at HRD Centre of Bokaro Steel Plant under the guidance of Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI) on December 21. Notably similar workshops are being organized in all the integrated plants and major units of SAIL with the aim of reframing the vision statement of SAIL. In this context, a workshop was organized at the HRD Center of BSL in which participants from BSL including Jharkhand Group of Mines, Collieries Division, SRU and Bokaro based SAIL's CMO, RDCIS and SET participated. The workshop was organized in collaboration with the faculty of Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI), Hyderabad.

It is worth mentioning here that the Vision statement is an organisation’s declaration of its long term goals towards which it strives forward. The existing Vision statement of SAIL was launched about 20 years ago, and hence the company has taken the initiative to redraft it in line with the changing environment and expectations. It was also decided to adopt a bottom-up approach for formulation of the Vision statement and involve as many employees as possible.

In the inaugural session BSL ED (Works) B K Tiwari, ED (Project) C R Mahapatra, ED (Finance & Accounts) Suresh Rangani, ED (Personnel & Administration) Rajan Prasad, Executive Director (Mines), Jaideep Dasgupta, ED (SRU), PK Rath, CMO  Dr BB Karunamoy along with Chief General Managers, other senior officers and personnel were present.

The programme commenced with a lamp lighting ceremony by the dignitaries after which, CGM (Personnel) Hari Mohan Jha welcomed everyone. Chief Guest of the workshop, the ED said that it is a historic moment for SAIL employees to be a part of the campaign to redraft the vision statement of SAIL. He expressed confidence that the workshop will be successful in its objectives and as per the prescribed roadmap, the new vision statement can be launched from the corporate level on the upcoming SAIL Day. Notably Public Relations, Personnel and HRD departments had an important contribution in organizing the workshop.
