Management Education- Rethink or Perish
This post is not about a physical journey. But a journey which I like the most-- sharing our knowledge. Yes, this is a one-day seminar for heads of B-Schools in India. Faced with the crisis of poor demand for management programs, only those B-schools will survive which can innovate and change. What are these innovations? What changes to adopt? What does the industry expect from a b-school graduate?
To find the answers, go ahead and participate in the seminar.

Management Education- Rethink or Perish
Need for Innovation
and Change
A Seminar for Heads of B-Schools
22nd Nov 2012 Hyderabad
Objective
With Government’s thrust on higher
education, number of management institutes has grown from less than 900 to more

also quadrupled from 90,000 to more than 3,50,000 per year. This year, more
than 1,00,000 seats have gone vacant with no takers. 250 management institutes
have already closed down. Management education is thus experiencing a massive
churn in India. This crisis is driven by many factors such as economic
sluggishness,poor quality of management graduates as well as lack of realignment
with the needs of the Industry. Only those B-schools will survive the tide
which can adapt to this change.

following issues:
