  • An Innovative Cycle of Management for Higher Education in Taiwan
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 9th INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE "Management and Innovation For Competitive Advantage", November 5th-6th, 2015, BUCHAREST, ROMANIA AN INNOVATIVE CYCLE OF MANAGEMENT FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN TAIWAN Chih-Yang CHAO1 Yi-Ting WANG2 Jocelyn CHANG3 ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, human beings are facing a variety of difficulties related to global warming, aging population, limited resources, rich-poor gap as well as low-birth rate. These problems have posed great challenges to the society. There is no doubt that higher education is one of victims under the change of the general environment. Indeed, Taiwan has faced serious problems caused by continuously declining fertility rates for years, which has threatened the sustainable development of universities. Apparently, the only way to get rid of this dilemma is to make change. Universities must find solutions to difficulties in student recruitment and develop ways to reinforce their competitiveness. Innovative management thus becomes the best tool to deal with these new challenges. In this study, we seek to share our experience reshaping and reviving a private university of technology in Taiwan, using the concept of total quality management (TQM), which has facilitated the birth of new possibilities in higher education. KEYWORDS: higher education, low-birth rate, total quality management. JEL CLASSIFICATION: I23. 1. INTRODUCTION In the twenty-first century, the external environment is continuously and rapidly changing. The development of new technologies has reshaped people’s lives in different ways. On one hand, it has brought convenience and boosted industries of various types. For example, social networking has been used as a main channel in marketing and advertising and has also been regarded as one of the most effective communication tools.
