Keywords:
higher education, work force, motivate, challenges, commitmentAbstract
In the 21st century, India requires an extremely effective teaching work force, well educated, highly motivated, deeply committed and well equipped to meet the challenges of the present world. The development of a transformative teaching profession calls for a reinstatement of trust and must allow teachers to act with autonomy, openly acknowledge their learning needs and work collaboratively with other teachers to constantly develop their understanding and expertise, as high quality teaching is the cornerstone of a successful educational system. Numerous studies lend support to the positive impacts of organizational commitment, and establish that increased organizational commitment in the higher education institutions would witness a corresponding augmentation of overall quality.
