Gender Gap in India – Tata Group to double female staff

The Tata Group is rolling out an “unprecedented” HR transformation that will eventually impact over half-a-million employees spread across more than one hundred operating companies. 

Apart from looking to induct over one lakh female employees and nurturing a sizeable number into leadership roles, the group also plans to take a re-look at how it grooms its future leaders. A new leadership development architecture is being put in place. TAS, its flagship initiative to create leaders for the future, is also being rebooted. “Human capital function is in refresh mode as people potential is being viewed as a key differentiator,” said NS Rajan, group chief HR officer and member, Group Executive Council.
