InvicTAS is an exciting general management business simulation game introduced by TAS – the Tata group’s flagship leadership programme. In InvicTAS, we place you, the participant, in a simulated business environment where you run your own business.
You will act as managers, understand the interplay of different functions and take business decisions in Sales & Marketing, R&D, Production, Human Resources and other functions. You will apply and demonstrate your business acumen and leadership skills and compete with rival companies across financial years and changing market conditions. You will have loads of fun as well, and win exciting prizes!
InvicTAS is a reflection of the TAS philosophy which is, to provide TAS Managers an opportunity to work across different functions and businesses of the Tata group.
As a team, the participants are required to take up decision-making roles of their respective company and drive it towards success. While proceeding through different simulation rounds, the teams will have to plan, strategize and decide, taking into account several variables that influence the operating and business environment. The teams will have to out-think their competitors to win.
