Doctor Steel: My Life and Times
by J.J. Irani
- New
- Hardcover
Penguin Business. Hardcover. NEW. In the 1980s, the steel industry in India faced major challenges. The steel produced in the country was neither cost-effective nor of high quality. It was unable to meet the required standards that could propel India forward in its development goals. However, the situation took a significant turn with the arrival of a visionary leader, Jamshed Jiji Irani, who was affectionately known as 'Doc'. Doc Irani was instrumental in the modernization of Tata Steel, a leading steel producer in India. His efforts and leadership completely transformed the company. Today, Tata Steel produces metal of international standards that is not only of high quality but also cost-effective. It has become a crucial contributor to India's economic growth. However, Doc Irani's contributions extended far beyond the realm of Tata Steel. He was a prominent figure in India's economic liberalization during the 1990s. This period marked a turning point for India as it embraced liberal economic policies and opened its doors to global trade and investment. Doc Irani played a significant role in this transformation, advocating for a more liberalized economy that would put India on the global map. Throughout his career, Doc Irani held various positions on Tata boards, further highlighting his influence and expertise in the industrial world. Moreover, he actively participated in organizations such as the Confederation of Indian Industry and served on several government-appointed committees. His involvement in such esteemed groups further solidified his reputation as an influential and respected figure. The impact of Doc Irani's work was not only recognized within India but also internationally. His dedication and contributions earned him numerous accolades. He was awarded the prestigious Padma Bhushan, one of India's highest civilian honors, for his remarkable achievements. In addition, he received an honorary knighthood from the British government, a testament to his noteworthy work in the field. Beyond his professional accomplishments, Doc Irani was known for his compassionate nature and zest for life. Behind his formidable exterior, he possessed a big heart and cared deeply for both Tata Steel and its employees. His integrity and strong convictions were evident in his commitment to the company and its people. The chapters of the book "Doctor Steel," penned by N.K. Sharan, reflect on Doc Irani's remarkable journey. The book is a result of extensive conversations between the author and Doc Irani in the months leading up to the latter's passing. Through these conversations, readers gain insight into the challenges, triumphs, and personal attributes that defined Doc Irani and shaped his legacy. In summary, Jamshed Jiji Irani, affectionately known as 'Doc,' played a pivotal role in transforming Tata Steel and catapulting India into a new era of economic growth. His contributions extended beyond the steel industry, as he actively participated in India's economic liberalization efforts. His remarkable achievements earned him prestigious awards and recognition. Despite his formidable exterior, Doc Irani was a compassionate individual who held Tata Steel and its people close to his heart. The book "Doctor Steel" provides an opportunity to delve into his remarkable journey and gain a deeper understanding of his legacy.
