Challenges in Retaining Talent in a Competitive Environment
In the competitive environment, companies are finding it tough to retain people. On one side, workforce reduction is taking place. In this context, individuals who leave organizations should consider the option of rejoining another company. They may often find opportunities with educational institutions. However, they may struggle to adjust to certain practices in a new environment, such as transparent communication, a culture of openness, and a focus on driving results. These practices may not be prevalent in educational institutions except in commercial terms related to student admissions.
Adapting to New Work Cultures
For individuals with backgrounds in technical, HR, marketing, or sales who have previously worked in corporate settings and are now seeking opportunities in the industry, it is important to be mindful of these differences in work culture and communication practices. Adaptability and openness to learning new ways of operating will be key to success in transitioning to a new work environment.

I moved from corporate (26 years) to campus (6 years). My sincere comments are:
1. There is a huge gap between corporate and academics.
2. If you do not have an academic qualification, there is a problem. If you have one, then there is good scope.
3. Compensation is in no way in line with corporate.
4. Here also, hire and fire exist.
5. You should get into either government or autonomous institutions. Smaller institutions do not provide you much scope.
6. Initial 2 years are tough. It also takes time to understand where you fit in and what you want to do.
7. 80% of the institutions are not professionally run or run by professionals.
All the best!
