Globalizing Management Education - Paperback

by Parameswar Nayak (Editor), Ram Kumar Mishra (Editor)

This book is a compendium of 32 double-blind reviewed papers from the international conference "Globalizing Management Education: Issues and Challenges for Industry and Academia." The event, held at New Delhi's India Habitat Centre on February 5-6, 2011, was jointly organized by I.T.S. Institute of Management, Greater Noida and the Institute of Public Enterprise, Hyderabad.

The selected contributions include empirical studies, conceptual works, and case studies. These papers are organized around five key themes: understanding global management education; its associated issues and challenges; the roles of regulators, institutions, and industry.

The central message is unequivocal: for management education to not only survive but thrive, it must embrace globalization. This requires integrating with global culture, polity, and socio-economic dynamics. To become socially relevant and globally acceptable, the book advocates for strategic initiatives like developing a global faculty, creating integrative curricula, fostering collaborative research, and strengthening industry-academia partnerships.
