Nationality: Indian
Year of Birth: 1937
Work History: During his early days, Ratan was asked to look after defunct subsidiaries of Tata Companies. For instance, 1971, he was appointed the Director In Charge of the National Radio and Electronics Company. He continued in that post for six years and by 1977, he handed over the administrative duties of Empress Textile Mills - yet another non-functioning subsidiary. He got his first break in 1981, when he was appointed as the Director of Tata Industries. He was asked to serve as the Group Chairperson by 1991 - a title that he still cherishes.
Education: The exotic financial background enabled him to receive the best education available at that time. He graduated from Cornell University in Structural Engineering. By 1975, he completed the Advanced Management Program from Harvard.
Bio: Ratan Tata could create ripples all over the globe with the announcement and introduction of Tata Nano - the world's cheapest passenger car. His family consisted on prominent businesspersons and hence Ratan could grasp and assimilate the intricacies easily. Under the fine guidance of this enterprising personality, Tata Industries began to scale better heights in no time.
In spite of managing a multi-million dollar business empire, Ratan never displayed any kinds of extravaganzas. Ratan Tata had this unusual habit of toiling hard with the company employees. For instance, he even worked with the ground level employees in Tata Steel. The powerful and motivational speeches delivered by him inspired the scores of employees to understand his zest for success. The management was also pleased with his work. Ratan Tata actively participated in the design and manufacturing processes of Tata Indica - India's first indigenously developed passenger car. Even on this day, you can find the Indian roads crammed with buses, trucks and passenger cars al bearing the logo of Tata Motors.
Ratan Tata also keenly manages the affair of Tata Consultancy Services - India's largest software exporter. Tata Teleservices is yet another subsidiary that feeds on regular inputs from Ratan. The mobile services within India received a jolt when Tata Teleservices introduced per second billing (instead of the conventional per minute billing) under instructions from Ratan Tata.
