We used to have a weekly workshop with one period allocated for each section of MBA-HRM/Strategic Management classes for case studies and problem-solving on given situations. Three to four groups are formed, which are assigned a few exclusive problems (which might include real situations from well-known enterprises and some imaginary issues). The groups have to discuss among themselves the problems/challenges given, evolve possible practical solutions, and advance with their Plan A, B, and C. They then submit their recommendations and reasons for choosing solutions that are legal and likely to be accepted by stakeholders. A team of HOD and APs evaluate their recommendations, and team leaders are asked to explain their strategies/present their cases, with points awarded for the best ones. This approach helps students understand the various issues that an HR manager might face on a day-to-day basis in the workplace, enabling them to be part of the problem-solving process effectively, efficiently, and smartly, thus helping management improve the work environment and achieve desired results.
Furthermore, every month, experts from various enterprises are invited to share their experiences and hold an open house for students to ask questions and clarify doubts, in addition to industrial visits once every semester. I hope this approach is common in management studies.
