Executive Summary
As we were assigned to visit a corporate office to collect information, we decided to visit

Meghna Group of Industries. We visited the head office of the company located at Bangla
Motor. As the company is very confidential, it was a very rigorous task to collect information
about the management of the company.
We collected various kinds of information about the company included services, future plans,
CSR, communication process etc. The company has many branches across the country.
Besides, the company is very much aware about the CSR. It helps the poor people by
providing various kinds help. The company also aware about the tax payments. It calculate
the tax every year and pay the amount accurately. Moreover, the company is very much
responsible to the social help.
We discussed with Md. Nizamul Ahsan (the director of Meghan Group) and asked him
various kinds of question about his company. We collected the information directly from him
and the secondary sources.
From the establishment, it has been producing and marketing various fast moving consumer
goods and commodities. So, they has a strong communication system across the company.
The group has been continuously expanding and has emerged as the largest investors in
industrial development in Bangladesh for three consecutive years.
In line with this development, they tried their best to develop their communication process
like online marketing, more use of email and via telephone among the company.
This is undoubtedly a glaring example of passionate initiative and a pioneering leadership

role by a private sector investor in country’s economical and industrial development.

Management is tasked with generating an organizational system and integrating operations

for high efficiency. Manager’s role in organizational design is central but have the
responsibilities of the whole company. The entire company depends on their decision. They
have to perform various functions such as planning, organizing, staffing, leading, controlling,
motivating etc. Being assigned to visit a corporate office, we decided to visit Meghna Group
of Industries (MGI). We visited the head office of Meghna Group of Industries and collected
information about their company management. We collected those information from oral
conversation and from their official website.

corporate world. The head office is situated in such a place that it can control its branches
effectively.

Need for the Study
Our education system is based on the bookish knowledge. That’s why, we haven’t enough
practical knowledge. But, this corporate visiting enriched our experience. From the study of
HSC and SSC, we learnt about business. But we have lack of experience. This corporate
visiting enriched our experience.
Limitations
We faced to problems in collecting information. These are follows:
 Lack of experience
 Lack of time
 Lack of enough knowledge
3
Methodology
As we were assigned to collect information about corporate world by visiting a corporate
office, we went to the head office of Meghna Group of Industries and collect information by
oral communication. We meet with director of Meghna Group and collect information about
his company.
Forming Group
As it was a group task, we have to form a group to visit corporate office. According to your
order, we formed a group of 3 members consisting Amirul Islam,Amiruzzaman and Md. Shah
Jalal.
Taking permission from Authority

The organization doesn’t allow anyone anonymous to visit their office. So we have to
communicate with other person who is familiar to director of Meghna Group. We
communicate with Mr. Jalal who is familiar with director of Meghna Group Md. Nizamul
Ahsan and he helped us to make our job done.
Creating Question List

As we have no experience of visiting a corporate office, we created a question list before
visiting the office so that we can prepare ourselves what kind of question we are going to ask
about the company. We write those question in a paper and asked the director about that
question. The questions are as follows:
1) What is the long term goal of Meghna Group?

2) Which challenges are being faced now?
3) What procedures are adapted to check the challenges?
4) What are the CSR activities of the Meghna Group?
5) What are the products of the Meghna Group?
6) What are the communication process of the Meghna Group?
7) What are the online services of Meghna Group?
8) Is there any subsidiary company of Meghna Group?
9) What is the dress code of the employees of Meghna Group?

Taking Information from the Website
We tried our best to collect information needed from the director. But it was quite impossible
to collect all the information from oral conversation. That’s why, we collect some information
from the company’s website to successfully complete our report. This information helped a
lot to prepare the report successfully.

Our Moments with the Meghna Group
31
Chapter 3: Our moments with the Meghna Group
It was a bewitching moment for us to visit such a renowned company as well as an unuttered
feeling as we were closely honoured to have accepted a friendly atmosphere from the office.
Specifically, the director sir’s soft behaviour toward us. He tried earnestly to provide us with
the needed information through maintaining the high secrecy of the Meghna Group. Anyway,
our entrance into the office was full of nervousness as we thought what will happen after
entering the office.
But, when we started visiting the settled environment and sharing speech with the
employees especially with Jalal sir. Gradually, we feel that we were wrong and that is our
second Home. And we, The BBA students, are always welcomed to visit our home. So far,
we felt very nervous that what types of questions we asked to Nijamul Ahsan sir.
After receiving the welcome salutation from the Desk, we then made ourselves engage in
visiting the whole environment. Firstly, we wished to visit the different senior Executives
workplace. We found, they were busy with their work. But, getting the identity of ours, they
made snap gossips with us and shared a bit of their job life. We were much honoured by
them.
We were waiting for the directorsir and planning how would be our behaviour pattern and
questions in front of the executives. As it seemed to us that our past thinking was totally
wrong, we feel relaxant to implement our stated plan. According to plan, we first divided our
task that we have designed to perform behind the executive. The task of asking question
was ascribed to Amirul and ShahJalal. And the task of writing what the director say assigned
to our third member Amiruzzaman. We got excited to meet with the executive.A few moment
later, he call us to join with him and at first sight, he greeted us with a smiling face and told
us to introduce ourselves and also asked our motive to meet with him. However, we started
introducing ourselves and told our objectives and also greeted him cordially. He ordered
coffee, sweet and beverage for us and wished to ask question. Our Group Member Shah
Jalal, asked him some questions related to their communication process, feedback process,
which Business Documents they used much, how he feel like working here and about
company’s dress code. He answered all these questions capably and snugly. The other
32
group member Amirul had implemented his Task with asking him about the Company plan,
company’s expanding industrial zones and what kinds of difficulties they face to start a new
project or plan, his personal motives and some personal questions. He handled all these
Very neatly too. He said that he is engaged with four other companies such as People’s
leasing and Finance Ltd as Vice Chairman and Needle Drop Ltd, M&U Trims Ltd and Siam
Bangla industries Ltd also as a director. He also shared an interesting story with us in which
he mentioned the Finance students as a director, according to him, the finance students
always confine themselves into the Books. He suggested us not to give more emphasis on
the book and mentioned us to know the world by reading journal, weeklies, and newspaper
ext. Anyway, our third group Member, Amiruzzaman recorded the information carefully what
the executive said. His task was really important for our report. So, we the group members
along wit Md. Nijamul Ahsan sir acclaimed him. However, at the last moment, we took the
coffee and then requested him to allow us capturing a photo with him.
We have collected his visiting card. He is fabulous person. He wished us around his Office
after 4 years and welcomed in advance for any kinds of helps regarding him.

Conclusion

Chapter 4: Conclusion
Meghna group of Industries is one of the greatest companies of Bangladesh which deals
with products and services. After visiting the work place, we have gained practical
knowledge that is very helpful for pursuing a corporate career. In the era of business,
bookish knowledge is not enough to have influence in our career. Practical knowledge is
very important. And to get practical knowledge, there is no alternative to observe something
properly. Moreover, visiting a corporate office also teaches us formal communication and a
little bit official rules and regulations. So, we think this was an amazing journey and also very
much enjoyable.
Although, there are some limitations, we try our best to solve those challenges. Besides, we
gain some experience that will help us in our future corporate life.
