'Never hinted or made a 90-hour work week mandatory'

 

In a LinkedIn post, she said, 'It is really disappointing to see how the words of our MD and Chairman SN Subramanian were taken out of context, which gave rise to misunderstandings and unnecessary criticism. Having witnessed his statement, I can confidently say that he never indicated or mandated a 90-hour work week.'

 

'Subramanian's comments were casual in nature'

 

According to HR, Subramanian's comments were casual. Speaking on his leadership style, Muralidharan said, 'He treats every employee as part of his family. He fosters a sense of unity and belonging, which is rare in today's corporate world.'

 

'Working under his leadership is more than just a job'

 

She said that SN Subramanian is without any doubt a leader who genuinely cares about the well-being of his team. He delivers by creating a nurturing and empowering environment for his team. He has the exceptional ability to balance such professional commitments. Working under his leadership is more than just a job.

 

'Fully understand the context and intent behind the chairman's words'

 

Muraleedharan urged people to take a step back and fully understand the context and intent behind the L&T chairman's words. He said leaders like him drive positive change and growth and it is important to recognize their efforts rather than misunderstand them.
