Our belief is that there is no substitute for interactive communication. Communication that
is top down, that is one way, can be useful for sharing facts and figures. But when we want
to share and idea, when we want to share the rational behind a policy or when we want to
get feedback, communication has to be two way - GM Joshi
ONE-ON-ONE COMMUNICATION
Low Tech
HPCL leaders waned the face to face one on one communication (open door policy over
8,000 employees)
That is my philosophy -
objective is to take care of those internal customers because if we take care of them they
will be willing to take care of customers of the corporation
Organizational conversation
Visiting employees out in the field at least once a month just to listen
HPCL Leaders would go out in the field and visit 8 different zones once a month, to
improve any operations and maintain good relationships
Sent employees out into the field for 2 weeks (Hamara Pumps, Washrooms)
Technologies
BENEFITS
Talking to people, meeting with front-line people and discuss with employees on company
strategies

Vision fatigue
Retail trade in India is still largely dependent on good logistics. If you ensure product
availability in the tank of the ROs 24 hours a day, you would grow without much problem.
Especially, when our outlets are the best looking in the country.
