Ratan Tata: a life in innovation and enterprise

R.N.T. was shy, too much of a tinkerer, more interested in design due to his architecture background and came across as an unsuitable manager… 

How did he become the chief architect of The Tata Group’s transformation into a formidable multinational company with operations in more than a hundred countries?   

This eBook, with its collection of essays and handpicked photographs, aims to give you a ringside view of the man who was Ratan Tata—within the Tata Group, in the nation’s developmental trajectory, and in his personal life.
