Chicken: To be or not to be; Same question different answers.
Birla and Ambani dwell on L'Affaire Chicken!
The proverbial question "Why did the chicken cross the road ?" seems to be on top of mind for the head honchos of two of the leading business houses in India. Each one of them is also on most global lists of the rich and the powerful.
Kumar Mangalam Birla (Aditya Birla Group) has decided to let the chicken cross the road and jump into the frying pan at cafeterias in his global establishments as he recounted in a commentary published in the McKinsey Quarterly (Butter Chicken at Birla)
On the other hand Mukesh Ambani (Reliance Industries) has decided to let the chickens roost as he backed out from a decision to launch chicken based products (Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Retail chickens out, stays vegetarian)
Looks like each one of them had their "Chicken Soup for the Soul" moment and came up with different conclusions.
Both, however I hope will stick to what another tycoon had said about the bird:
Business is never so healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching around for what it gets.
