1. MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN THE HIGHER EDUCATIONAL
INSTITUTIONS AND UNIVERSITIES:
Over the past decade, a team from Harvard Business School, London School of
Economics, McKinsey & Company, and Stanford has systematically surveyed global
management. They measured management practices across operational management,
monitoring, targets, and people management and generated an overall management score,
surveying over 10,000 firms including educational institutions and in 20 countries
including India. This research created the first global database of management practices.
GDP and management scores have positive
correlationi

RESPONDENTS PERCENTAGE
SIZEOFUNIVERSITY/INSTITUTE
17. www.university 21.com 17
1. Our present students enrolment ratio in higher education is just about 18 percent
targeted to increase that figure to 30%, requiring another 800 universities and 40,000
colleges in the next 10 years. Basically huge demand exists. But, 42% of the institutes
have enrolment less then 1000 and another 16% have below 2000. Also 66% institutes
expect enrolment growth less than 20%. Clear Demand Supply Disequilibrium.
Conclusion: Institutes need to rethink their growth strategy.
2. National employability test, industry, NASSCOM have repeatedly echoed that only 20
25% of the graduating students are employable, the placement are below satisfactory
levels, yet the heads of institutions seem to be satisfied with their performances?
Conclusion: There is clear need for improved industry academia interaction and the need
to have performance management.
3. 100% respondents said that they Lack Quality Faculty, they echo that faculty capability
improvement is their number one pain point, yet the respondents write that they are
satisfied with faculty engagement.
Conclusion: Serious need to assess relationship between 21st century skills needed in he
classroom, student aspirations, quality of leadership bandwidth, understanding of the
shared vision by entire faculty and administrative staff at the institutes
