Re: [MTC Global] Vice-Chancellor should be from a different university



I agree to the ongoing discussion that Vice chancellor or Directors or Faculty"s should be from another instituition. But in our well entrenched, politicized, bureaucratic, domineering systems, we cannot prevent the outgoing students from becoming teachers or an undeserving person within the system getting promoted. 60 to 70% appointments are of this nature. Where to start? What to do?  In India, we have to have to live with low calibre people occupying pivotal positions in institutions, universities, public sector, Govt, etc.Their appointment can be challenged, is questionable as they lack the capability,competence or commitment. - needed for that position. But it is futile as the system has to satisfy representatves from a hundred castes, sects, groups, religions, communities. We cannot run away to a foreign country. We cannot stop working or resort to noncooperation with the people around. That is one thing the intelectuals & thought leaders must guard against.

We should stop blaming the people, system or circumstances. It drains our energy & plunges efficiency to an all time low .We go down. I am seeing this happen in many institutions.
In fact, I am in the process of changing good & effective professionals from becoming mediocres & also rans. 

Irrespective of the unhealthy environment or difficult circumstances - an outcome of indifferent subordinates, insecure boss, deceptive colleagues - one should happily keep working , sharing, deliberating, motivating, pushing & getting things done. That is the Change we should bring wherever we are working. MTC G is not an ordinary forum - its an extraordinary congregation of Management educators, trainers, thinkers & like minded individuals, who will not hesitate to unleash the dynamite for good, if need be & the situation demands.

This is applicable to academics as well.

A product of the same college should not be its faculty member.
A professor of same university should not be its vice-chancellor.

Another facet of the same thought process is that many  state administrations don't understand the value of cross-cultural mix of faculty members. They take alumni of the same institution as faculty members. Instead, faculty should come from a different institution which leads to diverse cultural backgrounds and diverse skills. This promotes competitive spirit and engagement with their profession.

I strongly feel that the cesspools of incompetence in learning institutions is a direct outcome of the lack of the foregoing ( no cultural diversity and no skill diversity).

Who can drill this wisdom into the minds of the people at the helm?
