The passing of Ratan Tata marks the loss of not only an iconic leader but also a global visionary whose influence extended far beyond business. He was a unique figure, celebrated for his sharp business acumen paired with deep empathy—an extraordinary balance not easily achieved. I admired him greatly for that.

Leading a conglomerate valued at over $100 billion is no small feat, yet Ratan Tata’s personal passions never took a backseat. His dedication to solving global environmental challenges, mentoring future leaders, and caring for stray animals brought a deeply human dimension to his industrialist persona.
