The parameter model of the nonprofit sector saw a significant change in their crew, with more technical and management opting graduates working in this sector. This means that the voluntary work has been animated in a profession with exciting growth opportunities, particularly those who have the fruits of technology? What is the role of these specialists in this field?

It happened in spurts in the past. It has happened in other parts of the world. But the trend now is to strengthen India. If the model of non-profit sector in the country, you will see a perceptible change its crew. 0.3-0.5 percent at least the countries of the workforce in this sector, and after consulting experts, there is a net increase in the number of engineers and management graduates opting to work for not-for-profit organisations . This is outside professional directors, designers and mass communications graduates who try to fulfill their request to create here.

Pradeep Mehta, Secretary General, cuts, Jaipur based on an awareness among consumers, the company confirms that the recruitment model has changed, both qualitatively and quantitatively. It Pins this passage on strengthening flow of funds by donors to the voluntary sector and the government and a greater passion government for the implementation of projects under the NGO. Hence, the aggregate demand for labour in this area.

On the reverse, the extent of benefits under the nonprofit sector has also expanded to more technical work, they require recording techniques graduates. But it also draws attention to an important factor in the niggling Trend: NGOs, who are in a competitive position to pay their rent MBAs services, and it is also true that NGOs are attitudes MBAs inculcate professionalism , As the enterprise sector.

But he questions the quality of these professionals. “Do MBA from Top Business Schools, NGOs In most cases, they have the level, but not the same level of expertise.” At the same time, another change takes place at the same time: the leaders and has an MBA from the Business Schools up, so that enterprises in their job and volunteer work.

Mehta’s Class doubt the best professionals for jobs in the social sphere, a response from this year on the Indian summer, placement preferences Institute of Management. More than 20 students in institutes of Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Calcutta and the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai, opted for an internship at the National Kidney Foundation, an NGO with headquarters in Singapore.

N. Ganesh Prabhu, associate professor and chairman, placements, IIM, Bangalore, said that the organization has already recruited students from top B schools in the USA, and the reason they deal with Asian students is now obvious to “cultural match”.

In India, Prabhu said in the past, organizations like Greenpeace-Stiftung, ActionAid, Basix and Public Affairs Centre, the Institute for Investment talent for the summer or outboard seats. For example, CRY - in the marketing of consumers - need specialists skills with a new and even recruited MBAs in the early 1990.

Joseph Thomas, Project Manager, sustainable access in rural India (SARI), a project for Internet access to rural India with technology, this parameter indicates the trend is not new. “They (NGOs) was the recruitment of skilled professionals and persons already for some time. Big Business houses have encouraged NGOs to work in various fields - science and technology, rural development, social development, energy, etc., and of course to look for skilled labour. In addition, funding agencies are more comfortable with NGOs, people classified as high-level, it executes in the field.

Time, the convocation address at the 15 close-out ceremony of the Xavier Institute of Management Bhubaneswar here, “said the head of SEBI also the best facilities, only poor students of the Skill sets win ‘ other information.

The State Government is contemplating to move the Centre for according Special Economic Zone (SEZ) status to Infocity, which houses a number of companies providing information technology and other IT-enabled services.

This was informed by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik prior to the signing of an MoU with IT major MindTree Consulting here on Monday. One of the fastest growing among IT companies in the world, MindTree signed an agreement with the State Government to set up a development centre in the Infocity within 18 months from the next financial year.

Information Technology Secretary S N Tripathy told this paper that the Centre had so far approved 140 SEZ proposals, including some IT industries. In the eastern region, West Bengal has received SEZ approval for IT and ITES.

SEZ status to Infocity will boost IT industry in the State because of tax holiday and other special incentives to IT companies setting up development centres there. Software Technology Park of India (STPI) is being given SEZ status, Tripathy said.

The MoU was signed between Chief Operating Officer (COO) of MindTree Subroto Bagchi and IT Secretary Tripathy in the presence of Naveen Patnaik and IT Minister S N Patro.

Promising to have a development centre almost the size of its Bangalore arm here, Bagchi said MindTree would employ at least 1000 software professionals within two years of its operation.

The company has long-term plan of employing about 5000 professionals at the Bhubaneswar centre.

The company has started recruiting from the State and recently a few management graduates from the Xavier Institute of Management were selected through campus recruitment.

Highly appreciating the response of the Government, Bagchi said, “Orissa has shown the kind of response which I have not found from other States.”

Lucknow, Sept. 12: The premier business school here is looking beyond the city and into the future, when perhaps it will be called ?International Institute of Management?.

Besieged by requests from industrial houses to run module courses to upgrade their managerial cadre, Indian Institute of Management, Lucknow, is looking to set up shop in the industrial hub of Noida.

?The new campus in Noida is a deliberate strategy to bring about a change of face of IIML because of its locational disadvantage,? former institute director Pritam Singh said at a recent workshop here.

The demand ? fuelled by the B-school?s state-of-the-art infrastructure ? is such that the new venture will kick off from June, 2005, from rented premises even before the 23-acre campus comes up in 2006.

IIML, too, had started off from rented premises in old Lucknow till its present, green campus was set up on Sitapur Road, 30 km from here.

?The Noida campus will start functioning from 2005 and supplement some jobs we have been doing here in Lucknow,? institute dean Bharat Bhaskar said.

But why Noida? ?Historically,? Bhaskar said, ?the decimation of Kanpur, about 70 km from our campus, as the industrial heart of Uttar Pradesh proved to be a handicap. The satellite campus in Noida, the new industrial pilgrimage of Uttar Pradesh, would cater to the corporate challenges faced by management graduates (already) in jobs.?

For students? hands-on experience of the corporate set-up, the upcoming campus at Sector 32, near Khonda village, will also have a board-meeting facility for practising chief executives.

?The executives and managers who are already working need to be trained on the basis of the need of the hour. So, these personnel can be trained through weekend classes at the centre for faculty development on the Noida campus,? said IIML communication-in-charge Roshanlal Raina.

The Rs 30-crore project will include a rooftop restaurant.

The Noida campus will have a deputy director leading a team of 15 permanent faculty members, backed by information technology personnel. The team will keep in touch with the Lucknow campus via video conferencing.

The students, mainly practising professionals, will be equipped to cope with rapid globalisation. ?To enable managers to have a global vision, the Noida campus would introduce International MBA course, for which some trainees would come from companies with sponsorship,? Bhaskar said.

When the need of the hour is to make enhanced provisions for basic and primary education, it is ironic that the Centre is keen on subsidising higher education.

THE first round in the IIM fee episode has gone the Union Human Resource Development Minister, Dr Murli Manohar Joshi, way, with the Supreme Court questioning the locus standi of the petitioners and asking for a break up of the fee structure.

But does it vindicate his proposal to slash the fees for courses at the Indian Institutes of Management (IIM)to Rs 30,000 a year that has kicked up a huge, nation-wide row?

The premise for pruning the fee structure is that the cost to society on an IIM student is Rs 3 lakh and that of an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) student Rs 1.5 lakh and that the benefit from such students to society is disproportionate to the cost.

If the Minister has in mind the droves of engineers and management graduates emigrating to greener pastures after making full use of the services provided by the Government and the institutions here, he may be mistaken because in a globalising and liberalising world markets are opening up everywhere and India’s centres of educational excellence can be in demand only if they maintain quality; opportunities are sure to knock at their doors soon enough.

The economic reforms have unleashed the entrepreneurial spirit and a swathe of industries has become competitive in price, quality and delivery of goods, especially abroad.

The centres of management and technology learning are partly instrumental in this process of promoting a Brand India image for a variety of products, in the process giving their alumnus also an international recognition.

Little wonder that even as liberalisation of trade in services is still under way, countries such as Singapore, Sri Lanka and other countries are sending out feelers for replicating the IIM/IITs.

The Manipal Academy of Higher Education, the pioneer private medical college with the fee structure even for Indian students “marked to market”, leave aside the higher fees for non-resident Indians and students of foreign origin, has already replicated its experiment, and runs medical colleges in Oman, Nepal and some South-East Asian countries.

The IIMs, the IITs and MAHE may be exceptions rather than the rule because these institutions blossomed after years of development. In the case of the IIMs and the IITs the role of the Government and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) is considerable.

IIM students have done the country proud, and there is ever-great demand for them. The entry into the prestigious course is entirely merit based, and the kind of talent the IIMs attract is the obvious envy of other centres of learning because professors do not dissipate their energies on reluctant students.

That is why legions of middle-class people hanker after admission to these institutions to ensure a sound career for their children. With loans for pursuit of education available at reasonable rates, many a parent makes it a point to see that his ward gets into the best course and the best institute, which offer such a course. Ergo the rush for IITs and IIMs.

THE Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (IIMC) has identified the development of entrepreneurship as a priority area. The premier management institute has decided to take concrete steps to foster an entrepreneurial spirit among management graduates, said Dr Shekhar Chaudhuri, Director of IIMC.

Speaking to Business Line after distributing awards to the winners of the i2I (ideas to implementation) 2004 event held here on Sunday, Dr Chaudhuri said the need of the hour is to produce more entrepreneurs “which will be good for the country’s economy.” On its part, IIMC would encourage its students to turn to entrepreneurship and make a difference to people’s lives.

According to him, management students should not confine their aspirations to high-paying salaried jobs. They could well become successful entrepreneurs “because entrepreneurship also needs managerial inputs”. An entrepreneurial orientation among the service holders would enable them to “face challenges better and initiate and manage strategic changes in the companies they work for.”

IIMC already has its own entrepreneurship development cell, the activities of which are primarily student-driven. The idea is to set up an entrepreneurship development cell and an incubation facility with assistance from the National Entrepreneurship Development Board of the Government of India during the months ahead. “This will enable us to orchestrate ideas and activities, which are now being put forth in a disparate fashion,” Dr Chaudhuri said. IIMC would soon launch programmes of 3-6 months duration on entrepreneurship, he added.

One hundred and forty entries from across India were received for the i2I 2004 event. Out of this, the top eight business presentations on the different facets of entrepreneurship were short-listed for the final event.

The recruitment patterns of the voluntary sector have seen a perceptible change in its workforce profile, with more engineering and management graduates opting to work in this sector. Does this mean that voluntary work has changed into a pulsating profession with exciting growth possibilities, especially those that are technology-driven? What is the role of these professionals in this sector?

It has happened in spurts in the past. It has happened elsewhere in the world. But the trend is now strengthening in India. If you follow the recruitment patterns of the voluntary sector in the country, you will see a perceptible change in its workforce profile. At least 0.3-0.5 per cent of the country’s workforce is in this sector, and according to experts, there is significant increase in the number of engineering and management graduates opting to work for the not-for-profit organisations. This is apart from professional filmmakers, designers and mass communication graduates that constantly seek to satisfy their creative urges here.

Pradeep Mehta, Secretary General, CUTS, a Jaipur-based consumer awareness society, confirms that the hiring pattern has changed both qualitatively and quantitatively. He pins down this transformation to the increased flow of funds from donors to the voluntary sector and the Government and a stronger inclination of the Government to implement projects through NGOs. Therefore, the overall demand for people in this sector has gone up.

On the flip side, the scope of work of the voluntary sector has also enlarged to include more technical work, thus calling for absorption of technical graduates. But he also points to one niggling factor in the trend: Those NGOs that are in a position to afford competitive remuneration to MBAs do hire their services and it is also true that NGOs are hiring MBAs to inculcate professionalism as it exists in the corporate sector.

However, he questions the quality of these professionals. “Do MBAs from top business schools come to NGOs? In most cases, they have the degree, but not the same level of expertise.” At the same time, another development is taking place simultaneously: senior managers, having an MBA degree from top business schools, leaving their corporate job and opting for voluntary work.

Mehta’s doubts about top-class professionals opting for jobs in the social sector is answered by this year’s summer placement preferences at the Indian Institutes of Management. About 20 students from the Institutes in Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Kolkata and the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai, have chosen to go for an internship at the National Kidney Foundation, an NGO based in Singapore.

Ganesh N. Prabhu, Associate Professor and Chairperson, Placements, IIM, Bangalore, says that the organisation has previously recruited students from top B schools in the US, and the reason they are looking at Asian students now is for the obvious ‘cultural match’.

In India, Prabhu says, in the past, organisations such as GreenPeace Foundation, ActionAid, Basix and Public Affairs Centre have approached the Institute for talent either for summer placement or lateral placements. For instance, CRY - which is in the field of consumer marketing - needs professionals with brand building skills and has recruited MBAs even in the early 1990s.

Jagdish Sheth, the recipients of the USA’s highest distinction sales educator, was recently in India leading to a panel discussion on what the industry expects management graduates. Jhumur Ghosh The reference to reports from private organizations in the field of training has been that closer relations between educational institutions and industry. This association is essential in the construction and maintenance of a relationship between the supplier and the job offer. The professional technical and management institutions offer a platform for the fulfillment of desires, expectations and demands of students in employment viable option.

Recently, a panel discussion hosted by Future Institute of Engineering and Management provided some insights into what the industry expects the Board of Management graduates. The occasion was the inauguration of the Future Business School (FBS), part of the FIEM, Kolkata. The function was beehrte Jagdish Sheth, professor of marketing at the Goizueta Business School and recipient of the highest reward educators sales in the USA. The other participants in these discussions Sunil Sood of Hutch, Pradeep Kakkar, advisor to the World Bank, HS Wadhwa of the National-Versicherungs-, Madhubani Ghosh, Faculty of the Massachusetts Institute of Maritime and Mousumi Ghosh IIM-Calcutta. The discussion was moderated by Biswadeep Gupta, president of Bengal and Industry Chamber of Commerce. The captains of industry during the discussion gave an overview of expectations, they had management graduates, Entry-Level. Sunil Sood, was based on personal experience to illustrate the hard truths that the B-school graduate faces, it could quite contrary to his expectations at a white-collar of employment and the High - Lifestyle flies. “Looking back,” he shared his eager public, usually composed of future leaders, “the residence as a Field Sales Executive Lakme Ltd and the hard physical work at work, without doubt enriched my learning. Of course, he had a look a little puzzled me and my batchmates. But today, I see he has certainly helped me mature as a chef and at the same time recognize that it is important, a team of humans. “Working on the ground to help break the ego under the management training, he added. Sood revealed that the employer he feels as future leaders of three. First, in countries candidates is a measure of the depth of his knowledge and ability to translate theoretical contributions to the practice. The second has to do with the candidates field of specialization, but Sood ideal is of the opinion that all leaders should be suspended each facet of the industry, it presents the work in The third is the attitude of candidates for recruitment, the individual - and confidence in the capacity as team leader, ie it understands how policies and handles team expectations. Thus Sood, does not just academic qualifications, but experience in extracurricular activities such as seminars and small events during the pursuit of a management degrees.

Pradeep Kakkar commented on the specific capabilities of management that students must acquire to meet the needs of industry. He insisted that the B-schools have had an important role to play in the development of innovative thinking capacity of future leaders. The need was imbibe new concepts, ideas and thoughts. Biswadeep Gupta stressed on the development and promotion of communication skills is essential, to the detriment of many students in India.

Wadhwa insisted on the need for management graduates, who can convince members of the team and the capacity of their superiority. Done that, in his view, the job is half finished. He insisted on a grassroots campaign where the objective was to sell a refrigerator to an Eskimo. This is it stressed, should be the attitude of an MBA students certainly want a pillar of the industry.

I remember, “said Sanjiv sheep, MD, BOC India, with an unforgettable moment wooing B-students,” we once the situation in a dozen bottles of oxygen at the scene and has turned to a room full management graduates, and asked, as many would be interested in the proceeds of the sale. “This presentation is part of the pre-placement discussions (PPTs), and competitive staff has already been the intermediary of the former Dia clickety - Shows and yawn-inducing speech SFX strengthening Razzle-dazzle. Boys had to be made between the eyebrows, was the dominant wisdom. “He was dismayed silence nearly a minute,” remembers sheep “, - Apart from fulfilling their clean air to breathe, we do not have much of an answer. maybe we should try nitrogen coming period. “at least, nobody has forgotten.

But sheep and his colleagues and staff mediate in n-confetti hoopla shows today. It works quite simply. On campus after campus, it goes back to the foundations: the “discussions” part of PPTs. The previously mandatory Q & A session turns into something like a dialogue. “We are talking with them about what we expect of them and what they expect of us,” says sheep, stands himself as an example, soon after the head after registering as Management Trainee that with the company, only 11 Years.

Interviews

Before turning to coffee at midnight with students, but staff mediator to meet their “market research”. For companies like Maruti Udyog, it means that studies of the first starting well before they are actually used for employment. Company Manager habit of taking conferences and invited students to encourage them to visit its facilities. “The idea is to create a joint report and sense of value,” says SY Siddiqui, Chief General Manager ( HR), Maruti, creating a clear advance in the placement of time.

There are also other devices interaction. “A year ago, MNC has a two-day workshop in IIM, Bangalore, their initiatives in different categories of products,” remembers YLR Moorthi, professor of marketing and mediation with the coordinator IIM-B. And B-schools are only too happy to such a society participation. “We are asking the company to familiarize students with a more direct level by organizing classes host lectures, case studies, etc. talked with them, “said Professor Abbasali Gabuli, Vice-President (External Relations), SP Jain Institute of Management and Research, Mumbai. It is an exercise in mutual learning.

Sometimes the spadework takes the form of formal investigations. In early 2003, TCS has been in the order of research reports to measure motivation. “Work is the main content pilot this year,” says Dilip Mohapatra, head of recruitment in the CHT. Other drivers, in order of preference:’s own prospects for growth, learning, Take-away pay the independence of work, increase market value, businesses of ethics, performance market, the company growth prospects supported the work environment and multi-functional mobility.

Compensation is always a hot topic, and this year, TCS expects fresh MBAs assign greater weight at home as to pay the costs for business packages. This could be because they are awaiting the first to create short-term jobs, and are therefore less worried about the benefits of career-span. This is an overview of TCS is expected that most of the PPT in its height, currently under General sample.

Open-ended dialogue

Dialogue is the adrenaline pump once the content of the questions. With the plethora of information, students have already voted in the foundations. “Students, which in turn to the study of interactions also the background of the companies concerned and appreciate the staff intermediary, the plain with them,” said Gaurav Nagpal, a member of the cell to mediate IIM, Calcutta. And ” us “is often a request for disclosure credible, as many management would say that really it. Are they really formulate the strategy? But Sanjay Muthal, Senior VP of the group (HR), the Hinduja group, is that their headers.

According to Sanjiv Goenka, vice-chairman, RPG Enterprises qualitative expectations are quite crucial to the fresh MBAs and most sensitive are being addressed, he notes with silk. “We are discussing with them about career advancement and the level of freedom, they can expect during operation,” he says.
