If you ever feel like you have lack of adjectives to describe any person, you can assume he is none other than Mr.Ratan Tata.

Don’t believe in taking right decisions, I take decisions and make them right.-Ratan Tata

We couldn’t keep count on how many decisions he made and got it right with his never ending spirit and a perfect attitude towards life and business. And we have got a proof how he mastered the art of decision making.

• During the 21 years he led the Tata Group, revenues grew over 40 times, and profit, over 50 times.
• He got –
• Tata tea to acquire Tetley
• Tata motors  to acquire Jaguar Land Rover

Power and wealth are not two of my main stakes. -Ratan Tata

Businesses need to go
beyond the interests of
their companies to the
communities they serve.- Ratan Tata

Mr.Ratan Tata is philanthropist, that tells us how he has seen beyond wealth and power and how strong his beliefs are.

“If you want to walk fast, walk alone. But if you want to walk far, walk together.”_ Ratan Tata

All of us do not have equal talents.
Yet, all of us have an equal opportunity
To develop our talents. -Ratan Tata

Equal opportunity to develop our talents. It can’t get more motivational. Everytime you listen or read about this man you will get inspired to do something new and the courage will follow.

Take the stones people throw at you and use them to build a monument. -Ratan Tata

This exactly justifies the situations Tata group went through.

In 1999, Ford told Tata group ‘you do not know anything, why did you start the passenger car division at all’ when they went to sell them the fledgling car business.

And the circumstances turned around in 2008, Tata surely built a monument or may I say the next wonder in sectors of India!

In 2008, Chairman Bill Ford thanked Tata and said Tata is doing them a big favour by buying JLR.

The COVID 19 crisis is one of the toughest challenges we will face as a race. The Tata Trusts and the Tata group companies have in the past risen to the needs of the nation. At this moment, the need of the hour is greater than any other time.

And yet again he became largest Indian donor of 500 crore Rupees and helping India in battling the crisis . Also the Taj group of hotels started by late Tata ji sent meals to corona warriors and won our hearts.

India has surely got a gem that we adore and respect for all our lives!RELATED
