Episode notes

In this episode of The CEO Diary, Lucas and Luna explore how Ratan Tata transformed Tata Motors from a domestic truckmaker into a global automotive player. They focus on the strategic gamble behind the Nano, the acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover in 2008, and how Tata navigated the financial crisis. Lucas breaks down the leadership principles - patient capital, long-term vision, and calculated risk - that defined Tata's approach, while Luna adds context on the challenges of integrating a luxury British brand into an Indian conglomerate.
