Vision
of the future
Group Chairman
Ratan Tata speaks on a wide range of issues concerning
the Tata Group and its place in a world changing
more dramatically than ever before. |
Towards
a new dawn
The demands
on corporations to fulfil their social responsibility
will become more insistent as issues of environmental
degradation and good governance assume urgency,
says Dr JJ Irani, director, Tata Sons. |
Business
without borders
Globalisation is
redefining the way companies do business. Alan Rosling,
executive director, Tata Sons, looks ahead at what
managing business will be like in a borderless world. |
Rural
vistas open out
The next big frontier
is opening up and the rush to woo rural customers
has begun, says Prasad Menon, MD, Tata Chemicals. |
Finance
goes into overdrive
The Indian CFO is
evolving as the bean counters of yore are becoming
business partners. Traditionally, the chief financial
officer has performed statutory support and control
functions in a business enterprise at a financial
level and will continue shouldering these responsibilities.
But, with the growing complexity of the business
environment, the CFO's role has expanded dramatically.

Byte
that reality
A virtual revolution
in telecommunications, software and consumer electronics
is on its way. Kishor Chaukar, MD, Tata Industries,
reflects on the promise it holds to transform and
simplify our lives in future. |
Keep
it simple
The future of information
technology, says S Ramadorai, CEO and MD, Tata Consultancy
Services, lies in making it affordable and accessible
to all — urban, rural, rich, poor, adult or
child |
Through
the windshield
Presenting a tempered
vision of the technological future, Tata Motors
MD Ravi Kant foresees a straight drive for the company
as the industry goes through a period of exponential
growth. |
World
traveller 2015
The world traveller
has a wide choice today and this will grow in times
to come. In such a scenario, the hotel chain that
remembers guest preferences and anticipates their
needs will, says Raymond Bickson, MD, Indian Hotels,
be the winner. |
The
workplace of the future
Fresh winds are
already blowing through offices, heralding the shape
of things to come. In this comprehensive feature,
Satish Pradhan, Group HR, paints the future workplace
in macro strokes, while
S Padmanabhan, TCS, Dr Sangram Tambe, Tata Motors
and Yogi Sriram, Indian Hotels, delineate the details.
