Management is one field where practice precedes theory. Management theory is largely built on practices that are successful. Indian managers sit on bundles of data and do not use the data to add to the management knowledge. This is because unlike the Western managers they are not trained to do so. The Academy of HRD recognized long back the rising shortage of management teachers also in the country. Accordingly the Fellow and Associate programs were conceptualize and started offering from 1995. Initially in joint collaboration with XLRI and subsequently, the same programs were independently taken forward.
- Strategic decisions in learning organizations can no longer be based on hunches or gut feelings. Organizations have begun relying on scientific analysis of data that the organizations generate. Data related to core competencies, organizational performance, employee skills and competencies could be crucial in formulating and implementing effective strategies for corporate plans, including diversifications and expansions.
- When organization experiences are systematically researched and analyzed, they facilitate organizational change processes viz. restructuring, right-sizing, process improvement, etc. Internal research, process analysis, and HRD audit have become essential for validating and evaluating the effectiveness of HRD policies, systems and interventions in organizations.
- Requirement of competent management faculty is continuously rising since the liberalization of technical/management education in India. ‘A teacher can give only what he has.’ Investment for acquisition of research skills and technology command go a long way in self satisfying and out performing teachers and management consultants
