Abstract:
Ratan Tata is widely recognized as the person responsible for
transforming the Tata Group, a large India-based conglomerate, from an unwieldy
collection of businesses into a relatively more nimble group of companies better
prepared to take advantage of opportunities. The case discusses Ratan Tata's
early days at the Tata Group and his attempts to change the processes, people
and work culture at the Group companies. It explains the steps that he took in
order to inject professionalism in the Group. It briefly examines the two
directions for growth - innovation and globalization - that he chose for the
Group companies.
