Syllabus: <\/strong>GS2- Issues related to development and management of human resources<\/p>\n

Context – <\/strong>Indians have a remarkable presence in the leadership of global organisations: IBM, Google, Microsoft, and now the World Bank.<\/p>\n

What are the reasons behind Indians achieving top leadership positions of global organisations?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

India is known for multiculturalism and tolerance<\/strong>. Growing up in India involves accepting, absorbing and interoperating<\/strong> with many cultures. It involves a great deal of tolerance.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This gives Indians a natural edge in dealing with the cultural diversity<\/strong> of global organisations, when compared with people who have grown up in a monoculture.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What are the implications of its people having top leadership positions in global organisations for India?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The rise of Indians to leadership positions in the world helps to reduce asymmetric information <\/strong>and thus improve global engagement<\/strong> with India.<\/p>\n

Each of these individuals is well plugged into the Indian elite. The top leadership of organisations has an instinctive common sense<\/strong> about India. This produces better decisions regarding India.<\/p>\n

India should think about the meritocracy<\/strong> within those organisations.<\/p>\n

India will gain by opening up to greater heterogeneity in our internal culture, to more meritocracy in global recruitment, to more engagement with the outside world. <\/strong><\/p>\n

How does the pool of knowledgeable persons benefit India? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

This creates the agglomeration economies<\/strong> of these individuals collaborating and competing with each other. India is a good site for building research offices<\/strong> by global corporations.<\/p>\n

It is the essence of the IT revolution in India.<\/p>\n

Why are Chinese not successful in attaining leadership roles in global organisations?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Chinese universities took off only in the last 20 years. Other factors are English fluency, the homogeneity of Han-Chinese culture, the lack of the full cultural package <\/strong>located in enlightenment values, and the stifling of imagination by use of state power.<\/p>\n

How these developments shape the future in India?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A lot of the Indian elite today does not play in the competitive exams for higher educational institutions.<\/p>\n

The average IIT graduate today has read fewer books, seems more like a Chinese STEM graduate, and has less of the full cultural package <\/strong>required for rising beyond technical functions.<\/p>\n

The domination of the IITs has probably peaked. The leadership cadre will come from a more diverse array of schools<\/strong> in India and abroad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
