B-School’s Expansion Strategy:  

Excellence in Performance- OR- Encouragement for Admissions???....

Industrialization is @ a stage of Innovation, which gives a go-getter outlook for change & adaptability towards emerging opportunities. Education seems to define more empowering engagement to produce some of the best talent that can tackle the complexity of Collaborative world. Individuals/Professionals are looking for Market/Industry Friendly curriculum, for better employment & enterprising options. Due to that Competition among B Schools/ Management Institutions are becoming very diverse & distinguished, which measures the base for Institution Building. Now, days, we can see some of the Best Brand/Names, who are well established –or- completely New Brand/Names entering into the Business of B –Schools or Scaling up/Expanding. My only questions to that particular model is “Why they are becoming so impatience/impractical to this ever changing market/business scenario.” Yeah, I do agree – that we need to move along with time from Individual/Institution’s point of view to accept openness/ learnings towards globalizations & accommodate the increasing population. So, can anybody tell me that --- “Do U think building lavish INFRA- with Modernization Facility, ultimately leads to Globalization's”?? .” I might be completely wrong also- but I believe as far as my experience are concerned , its not the Infrastructure , that alone define B School’s Branding, there are many more Multiple Options which goes on in a B School’s Ranking classifications. The Most Important drivers are “Intellectual Capital/ Resources (People Proposition- Teaching/ Non-Teaching) that nurture the environment of a B School, which develop/design an culture for Innovation, R & D, Entrepreneurship, Decision & Analytical Skills, Social & Interpersonal skills, Corporate Relations, etc. If u categorizes some of the Names who are expanding or New Names who are entering, everybody will find that all that necessity/needs are missing, the only thing present is Hi-Fi Architecture with Wi-Fi connectivity, not so well concerned about World Affairs. – The solution to that perspective is – Encouragement for admission & less insights for Excellence, to increase the nos. of seats on y-to-y basis, thereby produce some of the Non-employable Graduates who are de-aligned with Industry/ Market expectations, probably employed also, but unable to breakthrough in Challenging/Tough times, because of their Foundation which are limited by nature & less inclined towards Risk appetite.  Think/ Analyze IIMs model, over these years, couple of Young IIMs have launched, but we will not find even a single existing IIMs are expanding – WHY , SO?? – because the model permits Build on Single Platform in relation to Time for Sustaining the Future of Management Education in collaboration with Industry/Market Mantra. Where as Existing/ Established Names are expanding with High End back-ups, continuing for some years as long as Capital permits. than slowly shutting down due to lack of resources apart from surroundings acres of land. Well, the B schools ( Non-IIMs category) are fail to understand/ analyze about their Identity in the near future, where they are heading towards, thereby focusing on Oldest Model of expansion ( Branch/ Chapter style in respected geography), without studying/researching about the New Upcoming Ones. My Only suggestions to them is – “ Realize the Potentiality of Technology/ Internet which are interfering at every step of our society, followed by grounding with challenges of change world & mobilize the mobile oriented consumer compass which leads to Creative Plans. Lastly, only Expansion is not the solution for admission, it needs to embedded with excellence for delivering differently so B Schools have to develop their Quality Quotient (QQ).
