Maggi Company was started by Julius Michael Johannes Maggi The aim of introducing
precooked soups, Maggi sauces & Maggi was to improve the nutrition of workers families and
became the first one to bring Protein rich Legume meals to the market in 1986. Instant Noodles
are most popular in India and Malaysia, Nestle has 39% market share in Malaysia, where
"Maggi" is synonymous with instant Noodles, and had 90% market share in India.
The market shares of various instant noodles manufacturer in India including Maggi and it is
very much clear that Maggi has the largest market share and sales in the market of 85%
Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (fssai) ban Maggi instant noodle after which, the
market share for instant noodle was reduced to 53% in India. After which Malaysia, fried
noodles made from Maggi. In June 2015, tests in India found high amounts of lead in Maggi
noodles. the food safety and standards authority of India ordered a national recall for all 9
variants of Maggi instant noodles and oats masala noodles ,Maggi cuppa mania - is an instant
noodle product by nestle launched in mid 2008 variants, ‘masala yo!’ and ‘chilli chow Yo!’.
According to the renowned newspaper article, it is specified that an officers from fssai checked
and did sampling of Maggi before its ban where Maggi was found healthy without any problems,
but as it was ban again the officer took sampling for the Maggi where again everything was fine
in it but due to a laud of Maggi which was not checked was quiet preferably having some large
amount of lead which was not checked properly thus which became a reason for its ban. It can be

very clearly seen from the above picture that many states have banned Maggi and stopped it’s
consumption after fssai reporting for Maggi the states relied on reports of Fssai and immodestly
banned the Maggi manufacturing.
Emotional and Nostalgic memories- starting from we miss you too, till Maggi mother &
welcome back Maggi the brand has emotionally attracted costumer towards it with nothing like
Maggi which was really very brilliant task as they bought again the emotional attachment of
Maggi with people touching emotional side of the messes.
Branding through survey – Magi did a great job by returning into the market with 55% share as
it not gained its market again but raise its percentage of people consuming it.
No Brand Ambassadors for a Period of time- their contract with Amitabh Bachchan and
Madhuri Dixit had elapsed. Moreover, at the current scenario, they weren't looking for brand
ambassadors but having campaigns
Used Mothers as Brand Advocates– using mothers to stamp their seal of approval was obvious,
and perhaps the only route to take, the strategy went some way in assuaging doubts about the
safety of the product, but still it will be quite a while before everyone stops thinking about it with
a little suspicion.
Partnering with Snap deal (Web store with nationwide delivery and coverage) for exclusive
sale – As Maggi was not available in many states, so they were providing them through snap
deal, with a small message, to connect with the customers during Diwali. It’s timing and
exclusive availability on preorder basis created a demand and curiosity amongst its clients.
Traditional Strategy – • before Diwali, several grocery stores and departmental chains across
Mumbai placed a special display on their gate written in bold letter "Maggi is back."
• Users of apps like Haaptik, received the alert when Maggi arrived.

Literature Review
• Dehashish Sakumia and Ruchi Jha (2016) they found how Maggi had faced the market
crisis by its competitors when it was ban and how brilliantly it used strategies to come
back to market with cases of companies facing a crisis. In such situations, crisis
management is one important art to learn. As we learn from Maggi's incident, the crisis
can hit at any moment and to believe that it will never happen to a company can be one
big mistake. They concluded that daily headlines are filled with cases of companies
facing a crisis. In such situations, crisis management is one important art to learn. As we
learn from Maggi's incident, the crisis can hit at any moment and to believe that it will
never happen to a company can be one big mistake.
• Shareena.P and Dr.Mustiary Begum (2006) they found consumers’ perceptions, health
concerns, and opinions in accordance to despondence, willingness to buy after the re-
launch of Maggi in market they concluded their study shows that consumers want Maggi
to be in the market and they are willing to buy the same in the future only if they include
ingredients which are good for health of them.
• Aayushi Jain (2006) found and showed that why Maggi was banned in India ,what were
public reactions on the same and how Patanjali Atta noodles were launched during the
same time she concluded nestle Maggi suffered greatly because of the ban and incurred
quarterly losses for the first time in last 17 years. In spite of many allegations and ban,
Maggi made a comeback and people whole-heartedly accepted it which is evident from
this survey conducted on 100 people randomly, but situation is not completely rosy after
this ban. Several consumers have shifted to other brands due to health and safety reasons.
• Dr. Moloy Ghoshal And Ms. Megha Vohra, they found and showed research on Maggi
launch, it was ban what were public reactions and behavior before and after ban of the
same and is it healthy or not they concluded - after analyzing all the reports studied from
the newspaper, online magazines, TV reports, and the survey held on Maggi and studying
the marketing mix of Maggi, it can be concluded that the controversy of Maggi did not
affect the loyal customers of Maggi noodles.
• Sajitha S Kumar (2016) They found that the complete launch of Patanjali company how it
works and manages the working where was it ,where is it now, and what are the future
prospects of it his conclusion - "swamiji believes whatever has to be done, should be
done big." is Patanjali too dependent on Ramdev? He admits that currently it is.
"Gradually, i'll step back, “he says. "We would like our principles to be in the forefront."
he has even given thought to succession planning. “globally, corporate houses are run by

depart," he adds. "We are preparing 500 sadhus to take over. They will run the company

ban in market.

toward them.

what’s not to use.
Research Methodology
In Research we have taken Secondary Data on the basis journals, Magazines, News paper articles

Analysis
Before ban Maggi had a market share of 85% before it’s ban, but after words when it came back
to market its shares reduced as seen above but people still are preferring it if it has changed to
healthy ingredients . It can be interpreted that most of the people were happy after hearing the
news of Maggi is re-launch. .

The market shares of Maggi goes down but still according to the CSE study on the link above it
can be concluded that out if 100, 81 people will still buy Maggi noodles after the re-launch and
19 will not prefer to buy it. It can be interpreted that most of the people are still eagerly waiting
for the product to be once gain sold in the market and are ready to purchase it. It shows that the
recent controversy did not had an extreme impact on the loyal customers

hazardous without any proofs, Ramdev not only opposed Maggi but also said wrong thinks about
other health drinks brands for children like Brounvinta , Complain , Horlicks and said his
projected product Power-Vita is save & healthy for used . Calling himself a not-for-profit
manufacturer of domestic products, the he cleverly made the whole thing look like a domestic
versus foreign issue.

and regulatory authority of India’s chairman Aashish Bahuguna (fssai) said that Patanjali atta
noodles are not approved by the agency, but yoga guru Baba Ramdev said that all legal

comeback to the market and analyzing It’s challenger Patanjali Ayurveda, both of their
ingredients and features we can conclude that whatever a company does to exist in market but
ultimately Instant noodles are not good for health but still are preferred by children, youngsters
and every age group.
Suggestions

by all, so the companies who are manufacturing the same should take care of ingredients
that they use to manufacture the noodles they must healthy and nutritious
• The companies should have proper and legal documentations of approval so that it
doesn’t loses its image in society
• The companies should always be ethical towards the society and challengers to it , which
builds a goodwill of the company
• Companies should provide a valid and authentic report of revenue generated and sales
made of its products throughout a financial year.

Abstract
Demonetization refers to withdrawal of a particular form of currency from circulation. On 8
November 2016, this is third time in Indian history that this bold step is taken by government of
India. The currency was demonetized first time in 1946 and second time in 1978. The chaos was
created in every strata of the society whether upper, middle or lower. Where some welcomed the
move as it was seen for curbing black money, many are suffering by this movement. But the
supreme sufferers of this move were the informal sector of Indian economy, where cashless
transactions are minimal.
Whenever this decision is initiated by government of India, only for the betterment of economy
as well as society. The move is targeted towards tackling black money, corruption, counterfeit
currency and terrorism. After initial euphoria, it is big question mark in the mind of every
citizen, Now what will be consequences of this step in the view of impact on GDP growth,
Inflation, Tax revenues etc.
Therefore it is imperative to evaluate the short term and medium term impacts of such sudden
and shocking decision. Further the impact of such a move would vary depending upon the extent
to which the government decides to remonetise.
This paper elucidates the impact of such a move on the availability of credit, spending level of
activity, social chaos and government finance.
Key words – Demonetization, Black money, credit, social and economic impact, Cashless
transactions, tax evasion.

Introduction
Demonetization is defined as act of stripping a currency unit of its status as legal tender. It refers
to cessation of current currency and replacing it with new currency. Demonetization is not a new
concept; in the past also it has been utilized by various countries as well as India to curb
currency. Some failed very badly with this move. There are various countries which previously
banned the currency and there were favorable and unfavorable impact on the economy of the
countries.
COUNTRY YEAR OF DEMONETIZATION IMPACT
Nobel Laureate and eminent economist Amartya Sen said, "The demonetization of currency was
a despotic act as the government broke the promise of compensation that comes with a
promissory note .Demonetization goes against trust. It undermines the trust of entire economy.”

SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
"In my opinion that the way the scheme has been implemented will hurt agricultural growth in
our country, will hurt small industry, will hurt all those people who are in the informal sector of
the economy and my own feeling is that the national income, that is the GDP, can decline by
about 2 per cent as a result of what has been done. This is an underestimate," Economist and
former Indian representative to the IMF Arvind Virmani reportedly said “Demonetization is a
useful method of flushing out black money, given that a large percentage of cash holding is in
these two denominations. The manner in which it was implemented is not surprising - such
actions are always secret till announced, so that insiders do not take advantage of the information
at the cost of the outsiders,"
Member of the Niti Ayog Bibek Deb Roy responded to the critics of demonetization and said
that “Critics are unaware of the situation on ground, the extent of financial inclusion that has
been undertaken by the Modi government, and how the revenue generated will help in enhancing
public investment. Economists who live out of India normally do not have access to the latest
data, and are hence more prone to drawing conclusions that may not hold true in the present
situation. They base their understanding essentially on reading English newspapers. Otherwise,
how would they know? English language newspapers understood many things wrongly.”
Surjit Bhalla wrote in The Indian Express that the demonetization move a 'bold step'. "There
should be no question that this BJP policy is bold and courageous. The trading community has
long been identified as the BJP's core constituency and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has gone
against this powerful support group. So let us give Modi a considerable amount of credit for
taking a bold step for the country - genuinely in the name of the nation.He also argued the fight
against corruption and black money in India has just begun. Most of the spending of this black
money is for expenditures on gold, purchase of foreign exchange, and purchase of real estate.
Transfer of money abroad into 'anonymous' accounts is now a difficult exercise for all the
world's black money residents. Gold purchases and hoarding are also becoming more difficult.
So, the prime outlet for big-time black money use is real estate.”
This move is expected to cleanse the formal economic system and discard black money from the
same. The reasons are to tackle black money in the economy, to lower the cash circulation in the
14
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
country which is directly related to corruption in our country, to eliminate fake currency and
dodgy funds which have been used by terror groups to fund terrorism in India and the move is
estimated to scoop out more than Rs 5 lakh crore black money from the economy.
On 16 January 1978, demonetization of high denomination notes was introduced. The high
demonetization notes as on that day amounted to Rs. 146 crore and total notes tendered to RBI
amounted to Rs. 125 crore as per data available till August 1981.

The plan of government to facilitate exchange of currency and deposit excess cash with Banks
failed partially due to factors beyond control. Exchanging/depositing money of population of 125
crore people is a herculean task.
The issue worsened as most of the ATMs ran dry due to unavailability of cash in the form of 100
rupee notes. The ATM machines are not calibrated to dispense new currency notes of 500 and
2000 which are smaller in size. Further, ATM machines required new programming to
understand the 2000 note denomination and daily limit.

Critics call it bad planning, was it so? Answer is not at all. Any planned calibration exercise prior
to demonetization would have surely defeated the move. Secrecy has no acquaintances; any one
acquainted with secrecy is its first enemy. More are the acquaintances lesser are the chances of
survival for secrecy.
I. Tax:
Having closed the voluntary disclosure window for undisclosed money, it has been reported that
government will keep a close watch on deposits over Rs 2 lakh in cash. This would mean
increased tax net, higher tax collection and a better tax to GDP ratio. As the money gets
accounted and more taxes are collected, government might be tempted to reduce tax rates going
forward.
III. Liquidity:
Movement of goods and money will be hit in the short. Wholesale channel forms over 40% of
the sales for the Indian consumer firms. This channel works mainly on cash transactions and will
likely witness liquidity constraints in the near term. This could disrupt the supply chain and
impact growth in the December quarter.

IV. GST:
Demonetization comes at an important as the country heads to a new tax regime with the
implementation of GST. Demonetization would increase the tax net and along with GST result in
reduction of black money generation. Along with GST, demonetization will lead to a higher
tax/GDP ratio, says CLSA.
V. Financial Assets:
As money lying idle comes in the main economy it would move to higher yielding and liquid
assets. Money is likely to move to financial assets from gold, precious metals, real estate and
plain cash. Equities might reflect the panic in the economy in the short term, but the move is will
be beneficial in the long run say most of the broker’s report and expert comments.

are expected to fall only marginally due to moderation in demand as use of cards and cheques
would compensate for some purchases. Real Estate and Property prices in this sector are largely
expected to fall, especially for sales of properties where major part of the transaction is cash
based, rather than based on banks transfer or cheque transactions. In the medium term, however
the prices in this sector could regain some levels as developers rebalance their prices. The Indian
real estate market which is largely fragmented and unorganized has had a reputation of being a
safe haven for black money and therefore we expect to see impact on period of time till the
market adjusts to a new normal. It will not have any impact on the primary residential segment as
the buyers in this sector are driven by mortgage. The impact will be felt in the secondary market
and the unorganised developers’ community where there were still cash dealing. Prices coming
down to more reasonable levels in the housing market cannot be ruled out. In the immediate
future, the sector will be under serious pressure with volume and number of transactions in
residential and land markets seeing a substantial downward trend. This decision along with real
estate regulatory law, GST and Real Estate Investment Trusts would further improve
transparency and increase investor confidence in the real estate market.
X. Effect on GDP:
The GDP formation could be impacted by this measure with reduction in the consumption
demand. However with the recent rise in festival demand is expected to offset this fall in overall
impact. Moreover, this expected impact on GDP may not be significant as some of this demand
will only be deferred and re-enter the stream once the cash situation becomes normal.

Conclusion
Demonetisation is an initiative to mitigate the problems of black money and counterfeit notes,
but it should be immediately followed by remonetisation as government of India has introduced
new notes of Rs 500 and Rs 2000. Our efforts should be directed more towards e-banking
channels and e-commerce in order to support government and also to achieve sustainable growth
of Indian economy. It is early to evaluate the long term impact of demonetisation on Indian
economy as major reflections are yet to come in-front which might be favorable or unfavorable.
Hence we can only speculate future macroeconomic effects of demonetisation.

Abstract
Entrepreneurship plays a vital role in social and economic development of the society and education is the
most important pillar for the development of the entire nation. Thus, business schools and universities are
paying their attention to promote entrepreneurship education programmes. But these programmes are
being provided at numerous levels and there is a great need to assess the effectiveness of these
programmes for different diversified cultures. Culture and teaching strategy play an important role in this
area and it can be considered as a wise contribution in theory as well as in practice. The aim of this
research is to find out the relation of different cultures and ethnicity, along with teaching methodology of
courses and to suggest the most appropriate strategy for entrepreneurship education in multicultural
classrooms.
Introduction
Business schools and universities are welcoming and registering the application forms from various
countries which result in different ethnicity and culture in the same class as students are coming from
diversified cultures. Different Multicultural teaching styles are then not just about being politically
correct, but rather should focus on effectiveness and opportunities for students to exchange cultural
experiences that will enable them to operate in a global context. In order to do that, the research is
primarily focused on cultural variations and an appropriate teaching strategy for Entrepreneurship
Education Programmes(EEPs). It is also the duty of the specialised teachers to teach effectively and
promote strategically for welfare and development of the students. Entrepreneurship in an international
context is gaining interest but there is a lack of literature in the multicultural area and now there is a need
26
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
for demystifying the subtle aspects of research in the same area by different countries, so that the
relationship between entrepreneurial skills and cultural difference can be more clearly identified. Critical
factors for the academy to establish and legitimize entrepreneurship education as effective instrument for
economic development therefore lie in the development of a theory of entrepreneurship and on the
capability in pushing the surrounding entrepreneurial communities to be a learning environment for
research and education. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of contemporary trends in
educational evaluation and the challenges specifically associated with the assessment
of entrepreneurship education programs. It proposes practical considerations for faculty and
administrators involved in developing assessment initiatives for entrepreneurship education programs,
including, the importance of reaching consensus on learning outcomes, the use of a stakeholder‐driven
approach for setting assessment priorities, and the need to allocate resources to assessment initiatives so
they can be sustained in long term.
Review of Literature
Stanford University economist Edward Lazear (2005) found in his study that variety in education and
work experience was the most important trait that distinguished entrepreneurs from non-entrepreneurs.
Uschi Backes-Gellner (2013) found that a diverse social network was also important in distinguishing
students that would go on to become entrepreneurs. Ruskovaara, Mattila and Rytkola (2010) found that
“teachers do not know enough about the curricula or the education strategy” Entrepreneurship education
is an area where lots of research is required to teach someone ‘how to be an entrepreneur’ is a critical
process. To teach entrepreneurship should be based on the combination of theoretical and practical
knowledge. A person who is only involved in teaching and has not any experience to run the enterprise is
not an appropriate and at the same time that is quite successful in business need not necessarily can guide
another person about entrepreneurship (Fayolle, Gailly and Clerc, 2006). “There is a lack of research
regarding the outcomes of entrepreneurship (Block and Stumpf, 1992; Garavan and O’Cinnedie, 1994;
Hoing, 2004) and significant methodological concerns have been raised regarding that issue” (Hindle and
Cuttlig, 2002, Peterman and Kennedy, 2003).
Entrepreneurship education is a popular intervention around the world, supported by private groups,
governments, and development organizations as a way to help young people develop skills that allow
them to create jobs for themselves and others (World Economic Forum, 2011; Valerio et al., 2013). It has
been argued that the earlier students are exposed to entrepreneurship, the more likely they will be to
exhibit entrepreneurial traits later in life (Kourilsky and Walstad, 1998). Entrepreneurship education is
27
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
often cited as a possible antecedent to economic growth as it stimulates innovation and job creation
(Hanesmark, 1998). One of the anticipated, but untested, longer-term effects of entrepreneurship
education programs (EEP) for youths and young adults is the creation of a new generation of responsible
entrepreneurs (McKenzie & Woodruff, 2012; Valerio et al., 2013). Increasingly, youth entrepreneurship
education programs are being funded and developed around the globe as countries adopt strategies to
promote and incorporate EEPs in their national education frameworks. Despite the universal surge in
popularity of youth EEPs, little evaluative work of their impact has been conducted (Valerio et al., 2013;
Henry et al., 2005a; Henry et al., 2005b; Peterman et al., 2003).
Sulkowski and Deakin (2009) state that to consider international students are important in terms of
teaching and monitoring students from different cultural backgrounds. Most of the colleges and
Universities are struggling to find strategies to tackle a class of students from various cultural
backgrounds. Marchesani and Adams (1992) also lamented that due to lack of understanding of, or
possibly ignorance of, cultural influences on learning, many university lectures tend to replicate
unexamined ideas about appropriate teaching practices in a multicultural classroom. Failing to understand
the implications of culture on students’ approaches to learning, behaviour towards lectures and peers is
likely to result in misconceptions about their motivation and intellectual abilities. For example ‘to be
critic ‘is appreciated in some culture but in other cultures this practice is not much appreciated. In some
cultures learners are expected to have a good idea about their research project but in other culture guides
are responsible to show the path to the learner students who go to other countries for their higher studies
sometimes take long time to understand the teaching patters on another country and in the meantime
tutors make different opinion about them. It is very much essential to consider the culture of the learners
while designing the course.
Deakin and Sulkowski’s (2007) initial research suggested a reflection of Hofstede’s (1980) dimensions in
students’ attitudes and behaviour, whereby a number of findings could be related with the previous data.
It is interesting to see the findings which are based on the relation to students’ attitudes to learning and
teaching, views of the tutor-student interaction and preferred teaching and learning method. There seems
to be widespread recognition that entrepreneurship is the engine driving the economy and society of most
nations (Brock and Evans, 1989; Acs, 1992; Carree and Thurik, 2002).
For Entrepreneurship Education Programmes (EEPs) particular Vesper and Gartner (1997) listed 18
criteria, ranked in order of importance by expert respondents. The top five criteria were:
28
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
1. Language problems (Beaver and Tuck, 1999; Maxwell et al., 2000; Robertson et al., 2000)
2. A mismatch between teaching and preferred learning styles (Chan, 1999; De Vita, 2001,
Robertson et al., 2000).
3. Unsuitable assessment methods (De Vita, 2002)
4. Differing views about the interaction between lecturers and students and among peers
(Buthcher and McGrath 2004; Maxwell et. al, 2000).
5. Cultural distance may lead to alienation from the system resulting in low levels of confidence
and disruptive behaviour (Gunara ,2000)

act largely out of self-interest, were comparatively less reluctant to stand out in the classroom and seemed
more self-contained. Both in literature and practice there is sometimes confusion between the terms
‘entrepreneurship’, ‘enterprise’ and ‘small business’ (Alberti,1999).
The major problem relates to balance like much of an emphasis on knowledge and not on competence;
too much emphasis on information transfer learning methods and not on individual small group learning
methods such as project teams, peer exchange, individual counselling and workshops. There is very little
evaluation of the effectiveness of such programmes. There is a lack of evidence on how learning
strategies influence the development of entrepreneurial competences and how these competences transfer
into new project/venture formation. There is also a lack of comparative research to identify
commonalities, and differences in terms of design and structure.
Globalization of human capital through international migration is no longer about global physical
presence only; it is also about global applicability of skills across various fields of specialization. This
marks the main characteristics of skilled migration from India to developed countries in the twenty-first
century. The focus is shifting away from professionals in specific occupations, like doctors, engineers,
scientists, architects, bankers, to information technology (IT) professionals embodying, in a way, more
generic skills. In other words, it is the generic applicability of information and communications
technology (ICT) which has led to large-scale migration of Indians skilled in IT. Moreover, the exodus
comprises not only the fully trained and educated workers going abroad for employment, but also students
- the semi-finished human capital - pursuing higher education in onshore as well as offshore universities
of the developed countries.
The new emigration is directed towards traditional host countries in the West such as the UK,
Canada, and the US, but also towards newly emerging destinations in continental Europe
(Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Denmark), Australasia (Australia, New Zealand), East Asia
(Japan, Republic of Korea), and South-East Asia (Singapore, Malaysia).By using mainly current
information and informal data as reported in the media, this article perceives emerging trends
and changes in the context of the global labour market for skills, and suggests a possible
framework towards evolving strategies of remedial development.

The results of this study imply that unique cultural context has differentiate the “knowledge and ability of
venture creation,” “recognition of the importance of entrepreneurship education” and “intention of
overseas venture creation with teamwork.” Moreover, the impact of entrepreneurship education in each
country is different because of each country’s unique culture in regards to entrepreneurship. This study
also analyzes the entrepreneurship education between college students. Entrepreneurship education and
teaching strategy provides students motivation, knowledge, and skills. The U.S. is quite familiar with
entrepreneurship. On the other hand countries like Japan, China and India recently announced its plan to
launch entrepreneurship education to improvise teaching strategy and effectiveness. American
entrepreneurs are great cultivators of entrepreneurial programs, have greatly contributed to economic
growth within the U.S. by creating and successfully managing effectiveness of education program by
ferreting the multi cultural teaching desires and aspects.
Conclusion
Entrepreneurship Education Programmes EEPs are very important nowadays and different courses are
provided by different countries and universities at various levels. However there is lack of knowledge in
this field of appropriate teaching strategy and pedagogy for the courses and according to the need of the
participants. It is important to do more research efforts in this area so that the participants, aspirants and
sponsored organization can achieve their goals. Relation of entrepreneurship with culture is a well known
field and entrepreneurship education is also gaining attention in this century but the challenge is to find
out the appropriate teaching strategy for entrepreneurship education programmes which can fit in a
multicultural classrooms. Moreover such programmes must be promoted and implicated in an organised
way by universities and colleges at international platform.

ABSTRACT
ICT has become a part and parcel of life. The discoveries and inventions in science and
technology have improved the speed of communication. By making use of available tools, ICT is
helping common man to fulfill his needs. It has become integral part of new era. ICTs provide an
array of powerful tools that may help in transforming the present isolated teacher-centered and
text - bound classrooms into rich, student – focused, interactive knowledge environment.
“Any technology which increase the rate of learning would enable the teacher to teach less and
the learner to learn more”
Globalisation has bought many challenges in developing countries and information and
communication revolution is one of the major challenges amongst them. And it is important for
developing countries to prepare their people, societies and government for this revolution.
Government organizations, policy makers, non- governmental organizations, educationists and
even common citizens are concerned with the importance and need to make their country and
society competitive enough in the information and communication revolution;ICT is basically
the study of Information, Communication and Technology. ICTs are set of tools and resources
used to create, gather, communicate, process store and manage information or data. Information
and communication technology is the major reason behind the economic growth period of last
two decades. This study analyze use of ICT IN management Institution with the help of SWOT
generates a new perspective that in consonance with changing paradigms of technology as a
learning tool; it becomes mandatory for the faculty to be well versed with technology so as to
facilitate and guide learning through technology.

“Technology will not have a significant impact on student learning until teachers change the way
they teach.”Larry Cuban, 1986.

INTRODUCTION
According to a United Nations report (1999) ICTs cover Internet service provision,
telecommunications equipment and services, information technology equipment and services,
media and broadcasting, libraries and documentation centres, commercial information providers,
network-based information services, and other related information and communication activities.
According to UNESCO (2002) information and communication technology (ICT) may be
regarded as the combination of ‘Informatics technology’ with other related technology,
specifically communication technology.
The various kinds of ICT products available and having relevance to education, such as
teleconferencing, email, audio conferencing, television lessons, radio broadcasts, interactive
radio counselling, interactive voice response system, audiocassettes and CD RO Ms etc have
been used in education for different purposes (Sharma, 2003; Sanyal, 2001; Bhattacharya and
Sharma, 2007).
All the sectors of economy witnessed an increased use of ICTs because of globalisation and
technology innovations and education is no exception. ICTs uses in education sector is
increasing and growing continuously across the globe.
Knowledge is power and education is fundamental to the development of a dynamic labour force
capable of accessing and integrating knowledge into social and economic activities and
participating in today’s global economy. With the evolution of Information Communication
Technology (ICT), the delivery of education and training is changing rapidly. ICT is affecting
university education and how research is conducted. It is currently being used effectively in
higher education for information access and delivery in libraries, for research, development, for
communication, teaching and learning (Jacobsen, 1998).
In the last few years, the extent of ICT usage in the world at large has increased dramatically.
For instance, the web is used for various purposes; from surfing for pleasure to finding
information. The availability of ICT, its ease of use and the numerous immediate needs it can
meet, have turned it into a key player culturally and socially in the 21st Century (Beno, 2009).
ICT is seen as a diverse set of technological tools and resources used to communicate, create,
disseminate, store and manage information (Tinio, 2003), which include radio, television, video,
digital versatile device (DVD), telephone, radio, satellite systems, management information
systems, computer and network, hardware and software, as well as the services associated with
them, such as videoconferencing and electronic mail.

SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
Mbakwem (2008) observed that ICT is all about the technologies that aid in the communication
process of passing messages from the sender to the receiver. Also, Okenwa (2008) concurs that
technologies have advanced the development of communication and multimedia equipment that
are capable of accepting data, processing data into information and storing both the data and 4
information for future use and reference purposes. He noted that computer-based technologies
include: teleconferencing machines, computers, electronic books (e-books), computer graphics
technology, instructional satellite, video conferencing and web television. Nevertheless,
innovation in teaching and learning, especially in view of the changing context of higher
education, is inevitable (Clarke, 2003).
According to McKenzie et al. (2000), many of the reasons for this vulnerability include the
concerns about poor access to the network, faculty members’ dispositions to change, innovation
adoption and general unwillingness to move out of their comfort zones and develop new skills
and competencies in order to be able to cope with new phenomena.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
This review of literature focuses on engagement theory which advocates for ICT-based education
which keeps learners involved in hands-on activities by the use of computer technology. This is
supported by Motamedi and Sumrall (2000) in Tuckman and Monetti (2011, p. 502) who
contend that “the use of computer has contributed significantly to the recent success of the
mastery learning/teaching approach.” Tuckman (2000) in Tuckman and Monetti (2011) contend
that “the use of computer-mediated class activities resulted in significantly better results than
teaching the class in a traditional way. In talking about effect of computers on what people learn,
Gagne et al (2005, p. 209) suggest that “many ideas and topics that have been left out of school
curricular because of the limitation of traditional instructional media and delivery methods, such
as blackboard, paper and pencils, and books, can now be introduced.
Engagement theory has emerged from the authors' experiences of teaching in electronic and
distance education environments (Shneiderman, 1998; Shneiderman et al, 1995 & Kearsley,
1997). The fundamental idea underlying engagement theory is that students must be
meaningfully engaged in learning activities through interaction with others and worthwhile tasks.
While in principle, such engagement could occur without the use of technology, it is believed
that technology can facilitate engagement in ways which are otherwise difficult to achieve. So
engagement theory is intended to be a conceptual framework for technology-based learning and
teaching and hence, a guide of this study. Although not directly derived from other theoretical
frameworks for learning, it has much in common with many such frameworks. For example,
with its emphasis on meaningful learning, it is very consistent with constructivist approaches.

SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
Because it emphasizes collaboration among peers and a community of learners, it can be aligned
with situated learning theories. Because it focuses on experiential and self-directed learning, it is
similar in nature to theories of adult learning (Kearsley, 1997).
The coming of information and communication technology brings about a paradigm shift in the
process of teaching and learning from teacher centered to student centered whereby the teacher
passes the information quicker and in a more understandable manner (Ajoku, 2014). Yusufu,
Kajuru and Musa (2014) support this when they say the potential powers of computer usage in
the teaching/learning process have contributed to a change from traditional instructional methods
to modern ways of teaching which emphasize on learner’s active participation. According to
constructivism point of view, learners have to create their own knowledge under the guidance of
the teacher; thus, the role of the teacher changes from teaching to facilitation.
As the world is speedily changing from analog to digital technology, mode of delivery in higher
education system needs to change in order to adopt current trends. This is supported by Wilen-
Daugenti and McKee (2008), who came up with the document of Cisco Internet Business
Solutions Group (IBSG) regarding key trends for higher education in the 21st century, along
with the role of technology in each. The document stipulates that adults of 18–26 ages are the
first to adopt new technologies and bring these technologies onto higher education system,
expecting their schools to have the infrastructure to support the latest technologies. “Because
students spend much of their time online, university professors should see the value of posting
37
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
academic materials on … popular sites where students can download and interact with the course
materials in a location where they also seek entertainment” (Ibid, p. 6). This background places
ICT-based education at the top most importance in the contemporary society of teachers and
learners in higher education.
It will be of no sense to talk about integration of ICT without looking at educators’ competence.
ICT competence is one of important prerequisites for effective ICT integration in teaching-
learning transaction. Gagne et al (2005, p. 2009) hold that “people need to be technologically
literate in order to use electronic resources such as internet, search engines, internet development
tools.” Even when Higher Education Institutions are well furnished with ICT resources, it will be
of no benefit if educators do not have sufficient knowledge on how to integrate the resources. It
should also be clear that, it is not enough for educators to have ICT skills and be able to use them
in teaching their students. Instead, they need to be able to help the students become collaborative,
problem-solving and creative learners through ICT integration so that they will be prepared to be
effective citizens and members of the society.

IMPACT OF ICT:
On the curriculum
On teaching/learning process
On teacher’s role
On educational management
On assessment/evaluation
Students accept more responsibility for their own learning and its assessment, developing
expertise in the process. Teacher application of curriculum can be monitored by analyzing test
results. This can be used by teachers for assessing and improving their own performance meeting
state and national standards.

CONCLUSION
ICT Integration is important in combating digital divide, bringing about digital opportunity
and paradigm shift from teacher centred to student centred learning, whereby the teacher
passes the information quicker and in a more understandable manner. There is a need to
foresee the role of technology in education and take appropriate measures to equip the
stakeholders for adequate and optimum application of the same. Incorporation of need based
basic information technology training as a part of medical curriculum should be pondered
upon. A judicious admixture of time tested and newer technologies in teaching learning
should be emphasized to make learning an enjoyable and memorable experience. Finally, the
study established a positive and strong relationship between competence and application of
ICT in teaching-learning transaction. This implies that the higher the competence, the
likelihood of educators to integrate ICT in teaching-learning transaction.

Abstract
The focus of this paper is to analyze organizational change management in Indian Banking
Industry. And the main objective is to determine the strategic change approaches that may
influence organizational effectiveness. This study explored public and private sector employee
perceptions regarding what strategies are required to create change that achieves desired results
in public and private sector organizations. Literatures and documents relevant to the problem
were exhaustively reviewed in order to provide a theoretical foundation upon which the
recommendations were made. The theoretical framework for this study is the Lewin’s Three-
Step Model recommended by Kurt Lewin. This study concludes with an identification of
proposed future areas for research to complement the finding outlined.
Introduction
In the dynamic environment the Indian economy is getting integrated with the rest of the world.
This induces the demands of corporate sector for banking services which will definitely change
in size, quality and its composition. The globalization has brought competition in the Indian
banking domestically and internationally too. This process of reforms has brought competition
not only from India but also from overseas. In order to compete with these competitors, Indian
banking sector has tried to reorganize by adopting various strategies. These strategies includes
mergers, acquisitions, spin off, joint ventures, diversities etc. There are many models that can be
used for successful organizational change. Public and private sector banks adapt those models
according to their need. Some adapt, learn and act quickly and some try to control and master
change in the environment. It is important for the managers to identify and use a model for
transformation that will help their organizations survive and grow in the next century.

Literature Review
Ron Coram and Bernard Burnes (2001) believe that no “one best way” (p. 96) to manage
organizational change exists. They argue that no single approach is suitable for all circumstances
and objectives; so they propose the following two approaches to change management: the
planned approach and the emergent approach. Wyatt Warner Burke (2008) states that cultural
factors function in this model to influence leadership, with links to organizational performance,
mission and strategy, and the external environment. Burke believes that cultural dynamics
influence the process of organizational change and thus should be considered at the beginning
stages of a change. Lau and Woodman (1995) indicated that each individual determines through
his/her perceptual filters whether change is a threat or a benefit. Each individual’s unique
“schema” of what change is or of what change represents adds to the formulation of attitudes and
reactions to change. Barell, Savaie and Mennier, (2007) concluded in their study despite these
low success rates, organizations still continue with the organizational changes in an attempt to
adapt and respond to the changing economic conditions, technological innovations, customer and
client expectations and a shifting workforce. It was estimated that 56% of organizations are
undergoing three or more complex changes at one time or another. Buyens and De Vos, (2001)
indicated that The human resource function in increasingly seen as one of the key functions in
the development and implementation of strategic responses to increasing competitive pressure as
both public and private organizations are forced to adapt to domestic and international
competition, technological advancements, slower growth and declining markets. Goodman &
Rousseau (2004) detail the reasoning behind the second step of linkage analysis, mapping the
change pathway in order to identify obstacles, as a way to provide a, “positive feedback system
where knowledge sharing improves engagement performance, which leads to more knowledge
sharing, which, in turn, accelerates knowledge sharing and the subsequent cycle.” Price &
Chahal (2005) list “communications and workforce engagement” as step number four in their
six-step process.

In the dynamic environment the Indian economy is getting integrated with the rest of the world.
This induces the demands of corporate sector for banking services which will definitely change
in size, quality and its composition. The globalization has brought competition in the Indian
banking domestically and internationally too. This process of reforms has brought competition
not only from India but also from overseas. In order to compete with these competitors, Indian
banking sector has tried to reorganize by adopting various strategies. These strategies includes
mergers, acquisitions, spin off, joint ventures, diversities etc.
Besides improvement in cost and profit efficiency, merger and acquisition could also lead to
increase in its customers, employees, and turnover and reduces NPA, eliminated loss making
departments. It also increases banks services in terms of branches, ATMs, off shoring, overseas
markets, core banking.
The thrust of ongoing banking sector reforms has been to improve productivity and efficiency of
the industry on a sustained basis. Consolidation of banks through and acquisition is the next step
in the industry’s advancement. As the bottom lines of banks come under increasing pressure and
the option for organic growth exhaust, banks in India will have to innovate to expand
inorganically. The country’s accelerated economic expansion will unleash the forces of
consolidation of the banking industry in future.
Public and private both the sector banks can adapt the Lewin’s three step model for change
management. In Lewin.s Model, there is a stipulation for three distinct steps in change
management if it is to be effective. Those are unfreezing the present, moving from the present
and freezing. If this model is not followed, then changes will be short-lived. In other words, you
can cause needed change to occur. However, in order for change to be permanent, you must
dismantle the present (and the capability to move back to the present), move from the present to
the future and put in place the people and processes to ensure permanency (Lewin, 1951). This
model is still relevant in terms of what to do. However, the speed at which it must be done has
increased dramatically. Lewin.s Model is one for planned change, not responses to unplanned
47
SVIM E-JOURNAL OF APPLIED MANAGEMENT VOL-V, ISSUE I, June 2017, ISSN NO-2321-2535
change. Yet it is applicable when unplanned change occurs, particularly if we know in advance
that there is some probability that the change will occur.
Price & Chahal (2005) developed a strategy for change management based off literature review,
case studies, interviews, and personal experience. Their strategy incorporates six steps: (1)
Prepare the organization, (2) Develop the vision and implementation plan, (3) Check or review,
(4) Communicate and build workforce engagement, (5) Implement, (6) Evaluate. Price and
Chahal (2005) recognize that the process made need adjustment and feel that adjustment can
occur at the local level. They also see the whole process as a continuing circle that eventually
becomes the driver for a new change. Schmidt & Jackson‟s (2005) feel a balance culture is key
to managing change. They define culture as, “how you get things done” and include examples
such as, “Execute and operationalize your vision and strategy; Communicate internally and
externally; Solve problems and make decisions; and Launch and support teams and run
meetings.” Building a balanced culture is broken down into six key steps: (1) Create urgency –
address points of pain, (2) Establish direction, (3) Charter a change team, (4) communicate, (5)
Align and empower leaders and employees, (6) Align infrastructure and increase accountability.
Schmidt and Jackson (2005) believe that once leaders are educated in the process of balancing
culture they can use that culture as a “rocket booster of change.”
Conclusion
All organizations go through change. Some organizations proactively opt to change to take
advantage of new growth and opportunities; other organizations are forced to quickly change to
survive and remain competitive. Successful organizational change management requires a
commitment to transform from what an organization is into what it wants to be. Organizations
need more than a model that simply help an organization move from the current state to a future
state. The management should encourage change process in the banking organizations. The rate
of organizational change has not slowed in recent years, and may even be increasing. The rapid
and continual innovation in technology is driving changes to organizational systems and

processes. Many companies spend a lot of time and effort to accept new economic trends, while
others adopt them easily. To strategically enhance the business competitive advantage, HR needs
to master how to lead the change process now and in the future. HR needs to be effective to
implement change and monitor its progress.
