To accomplish this goal of empowering Tata employees to learn and share knowledge across the group, TBExG has developed the cutting-edge digital platform ‘EDGE’, which promotes best practices sharing within the Tata group. In order to have a judicious mix of digital avenues as well as face-to-face sessions, TBExG set up the Learning Missions initiative. Through this initiative, employees from different group companies can interact closely with each other through a face-to-face process that makes it simpler to internalise learnings and imbibe best practices. This initiative focuses on a few important but reasonably deployable topics across various functions and verticals.
