Answer:-

It is currently one of the top universities in UK and as per QS world rankings it is also the second-best social science and management study institute. Its major research centers include Centre for Economic Performance (1990), Gender Institute (1993), the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment (2008) and LSE African Initiative (2009) and the South Asia Centre and Women Peace and Security established in 2015 (LSE, 2020). The vision of the company is a community of people and ideas, founded to know the causes of things, for the betterment of society and its new objective for 2030 is to become the leading social science institution with the greatest global impact. Its strategic priorities include education for 2030 and beyond, students as agents of change, inclusive student experience, education and skills for life, world-class research in the social sciences, lead and sustain the social sciences, shape the world’s political, economic and social future, convene the world in and from London, invest in developing the staff, engage alumni, friends and partners, champion equity, diversity and inclusion, invest in a world-class environment and enable and sustain change (LSE, 2019).

There are several purposes behind choosing this institute. It truly has a multi-national population with half of its total staff (i.e. 3000) and two-thirds of the total students (i.e. 12000) come from overseas countries. Workforce planning is a serious challenge for such a huge institute which is already successfully running 22 research centres, 23 departments and 16 service areas. It undertakes human resource strategy review every five years and the scope extends to all concerned segments of the institution with an evidence-based approach. Its strategy is dependent on specific pillars which have been decided according to the institute’s priority. One of the main reasons for its success is the use of facts and figures and prioritizing every activity that needs reforms. As many as 18 Nobel Prize winners have taught or studied at this institute and 37 world leaders have emerged from here or taught at this institute. These eminent personalities in the faculty include George Bernard Shaw, Christopher Pissarides, George Papandreou, Queen Margarethe of Denmark and Shri K.R. Narayanan (LSE, 2020).
