“…Business researchers are immersed in designing and rethinking the MBA degree ( 16 , 17 ). In their efforts to critically scrutinize the degree and programs, researchers have documented analysis of new and futuristic ideas ( 18 – 20 ); the MBA curriculum at the crossroads ( 17 , 21 – 25 ); global/international focus ( 26 , 27 ); medical and healthcare context ( 28 ); human capital ( 29 ); women/gender ( 30 ); economics ( 31 ); industry ( 32 ); and cross-disciplinary synergy ( 33 ). While our synthesis of the literature is not exhaustive, the topics above are the major themes that scholars have used to contextualize the MBA redesign.…”

Theory without relevance for practice in a professional graduate degree has been critiqued by some scholars as a deficit approach when preparing MBA students for the workforce. Scholars and practitioners alike call for more pedagogy in the curriculum with a focus on innovation, creativity, and the involvement of industry practitioners. This paper serves as a case study of a moment in time on Monday, 14 June 2021, when the concept of “pracademics” was realized between two artists and two faculty. Following the transcription of the dialogue between two guest speakers from the Hip Hop world (i.e., Fat Joe and DJ Khaled) and two faculty from the sport management MBA program, the paper analyzes the deeper meaning of their intellectual presence with their expertise in the business of culture (i.e., Hip Hop). Findings reveal how the pairing of Hip Hop artists and faculty in an MBA program can address the innovation gap within global business curricula and models. The broader umbrella of pedagogy and application has implications for other academic disciplines to embrace this concept of pairing academics and industry practitioners.

“…The method is also extensively used in banking (Chatterjee & Dhaigude, 2018) to compare the existing facilities on offer (Katiyar & Badola, 2018). Other areas like education (Chatterjee & Poovathingal, 2019; Mahajan et al, 2016), food and the hotel industry (Sagheer et al, 2009; Sarmah & Rahman, 2018) have also used this method.…”

The study attempts to identify the critical enablers that can mitigate supply chain (SC) disruption and model the interconnectedness among them in the context of the Indian Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The supply chain in many Indian MSMEs has been seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing forth the need to identify avenues that can mitigate the disruptions. This study conducts a two-stage qualitative interview and a structured interview with MSME owners. Domain experts are associated with the automotive, aerospace and design services industries. Based on their responses, we have identified seven major critical enablers specific in the context of Indian MSMEs. To model the interconnection among these factors, we have used the ISM (Interpretive Structural Modelling) approach. Results suggest that ‘top management support’ is the most crucial enabler in the hierarchy. Further, we find that if the supply chain is designed efficiently with redundancy in mind and the culture of the MSME remains conducive, advanced forms of ‘multi-sourcing’ and differentiated logistics can be explored to mitigate supply chain disruption.

“…Lack of core competencies amongst management graduates is a significant factor affecting performance and has been well-established in extant literature (Long et al , 2013; Jena and Sahoo, 2014; Prasad et al , 2016; Achmad, 2017; Mahajan et al , 2014; Chatterjee and Poovathingal, 2020).…”

PurposeThis paper proposes a decision-making framework for assessing various dimensions and barriers that have affected the admission process in management educational institutions during the ongoing pandemic. The framework considers the interrelationship between the obstacles and highlights the importance of each barrier.Design/methodology/approachAn integrated method based on decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory and analytical network process is proposed to structure the barrier assessment framework. Results obtained from the study are validated by comparing them against the conventional analytical hierarchy process.FindingsThe results obtained from this study indicate four significant dimensions that hinder admission in Indian management institutes, namely, governmental, financial, sectoral, institutional and market. The top five barriers are demand shift towards technical (alternative) skills, acceptance of the graduated students, lack of industry–institute collaboration, lack of long-term vision and opening new Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs) and Indian Institute of Managements (IIMs).Research limitations/implicationsDuring this ongoing pandemic, many educational institutes have been forced to shift from the traditional classroom to a virtual teaching model. In this regard, this study helps identify and assess the barriers to admission in Indian management institutes during this epidemic and thus, contribute to the literature. The findings will assist all stakeholders and policymakers of management institutions design and develop appropriate managerial strategies. The study is conducted in the Indian management educational institute context and can be extended to technical education institutions for deeper insights.Originality/valueThe paper develops an assessment framework for analysing the barriers to admission in Indian management institutes during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Research implications are discussed in the context of a developing country.
