College Annual Day would be the best case study to explain the decentralization

and participative management. It is an indicator of the prodigious event of college

where decentralization and participative management is implemented right from
the management level to the student level.

The Governing council is the guiding force which persuades the persistent
enhancement of the college. The management conducts meeting with the Principal
to review academic excellence of the institution. Every event and programme
which is organised is well planned and presented having taken all the guidance and
suggestion from higher authority. The dates were fixed by the Secretary and
Chairman of Governing Council. The Guests were fixed after having the
discussion with Principal and other committee heads.

The Principal calls for a meeting with all the department heads and
committee heads of the college before organising the programme and determine
the budget. The Principal ensured active participation of all staffs. The Committee
heads were instructed to allot works for all the other members. The members in
turn guided and distributed the responsibilities to the Student Council heads. The
Council heads ensure the participation of all the students.
