NIM CI campus
Located in tier II city, 35 KM outside the town
The location was considered to be serious challenges posing
challenges like lack of Industry interaction and campus recruitment
opportunities
Faculties view
Unit based work measurement system is considered to be the best
and transparent performance management system by faculties
It allowed them to plan various activities for the entire year
It removes the uncertainty associated with variable pay
It is one of the major motivation among faculties to work at NIM-CI

concerning it would affect their incentives
Faculties also cited that given the locational disadvantages, the old
system is only reason to stay in campus

Importance of Faculty Recruitment
and Retention for NIM
The quality of intellectual capital greatly influence most of ranking
agencies
Most students who apply to NIM are influenced by annual business
school rankings
Good faculty community is an important resource to meet the
strategic goal of NIM
Growing student number
EEP sessions conducted by good faculties attract more revenue
Consequences of speculated change
in PMS
The decision has triggered major dissatisfaction among faculties
A faculty threatened the board of resigning her job if the system gets
replaced
Few faculties started exploring other opportunities
Two of faculty members had already quit
Turnover rate has been since significant
Recommendations
To address lack of evaluation of work quality in current system, more
weightage can be allocated to student feedback (360 degree
feedback)
Making case and journal review more stringent
Rewards for quality publication and cases must be high
Units should be given based on worthiness of the work rather the
number
Units for Administrative responsibilities must to reduced
