India will open up education sector, predicts Ruth David

Ruth David of Forbes predicts that "The Indian government will allow foreign universities to enter India, setting in motion a revolution in education and helping the country meet the growing demand for an educated workforce."

This is inevitable as India copes to meet the severe talent shortage that is already one of the top business challenges.

The management of Infosys are doing a very good job bringing prestige to India.In this modern world the art of Management has become a part and parcel of everyday life, be it at home, in the office or factory and in Government. In all organizations, where a group of human beings assemble for a common purpose irrespective of caste, creed, and religion, management principles come into play through the management of resources, finance and planning, priorities, policies and practice. Management is a systematic way of carrying out activities in any field of human effort.

Its task is to make people capable of joint performance, to make their weaknesses irrelevant, says the Management Guru Peter Drucker. It creates harmony in working together - equilibrium in thoughts and actions, goals and achievements, plans and performance, products and markets. It resolves situations of scarcity, be they in the physical, technical or human fields, through maximum utilization with the minimum available processes to achieve the goal. Lack of management causes disorder, confusion, wastage, delay, destruction and even depression. Managing men, money and materials in the best possible way, according to circumstances and environment, is the most important and essential factor for a successful management.

Its great that education sector is catching up GOI attention, but i feel modern initiatives like e-learning should also be pushed to take education to the masses esp. in the rural India.

The opening up of education sector is going to create a reverse brain drain primarily because there is a huge dearth of quality academicians in the country.Fields like engineering and management is finding it difficult to attract and retain good faculty. This will provide opportunity for knowledge workers from developed nations ( where recessions have set in) to look at India as a possible destination. Time will come when Harvard professors may take a full time job in an Indian university...
