The world today has become really flat, and an impact in one corner can surely put the globe off balance. As we go through highly volatile economic conditions, it has become almost mandatory for businesses to proactively catch on the signs of change and consequently push for a more rigorous approach to transformation. Most of the HR Leaders across the world have a changed strategy which is the cause of the business impact they are creating. This impact is largely an outcome of two forces - Changing Business Metrics and Changing Workforce Trends. Section 1 Both of the above immediately impact the way HR gets delivered in the organization and how HR equity is perceived within the organization. The vital sharing of the Board Room by the HR Leadership is just one indicator out of many. Another fundamental shift is the new HR Delivery Structure, with a confluence of Business CoEs and Delivery CoEs through HR Shared Services.

  • Turbulent Times
    Turbulent Times anagement education provided by business schools in India is passing through turbulent weather. By a rough estimate there are about 4000 Mmanagement Institutes with approved seat capacity of about 3.5 lakh . Nearly 140 B-Schools have sought AICTE permission to put their shutter down. The reason-seats are not filled (Business model is not viable). Numbers of admissions are stayed at about 20% to 30% of the sanctioned strength. There is over capacity, shoddy products, business men in education and very little adaptability to this competitive situation. Academic research is rare in India. According to a study by UT Dallas, all business schools of the country together published just 36 papers in journals during the period 1999-2012 against 276 of Wharton and 182 of Harvard. In another study,during this period,there were only 108 articles published by Indian based authors in 40 journals tracked by Financial Times-means just five articles per year from this big country. The reason for this sad state of affairs is Poor HR practices of majority of B-Schools which have not encouraged the research culture.Such Institutions either do not have any formal PMS or even if it is there, does not incentivise research or penalize lack of it. Tier -2 and 3 schools heavily rely on part time and visiting faculty. The need to upgrade and retrain faculty in emerging business perspectives is practically absent in this category. Industry exposure is very little. The summer projects/ internship programs are suspect. It is another shoddy business. The downward spiral of management education is the heavy focus on placements during the time of admissions.
