| The World economic scenario is rapidly changing. Many
small countries are getting empowered losing heir dependence on the traditional economic
forces that used to control them. The Philippines is one such country. It is currently
experiencing an economic boom. Construction and development are moving at an enprecedented
pace.
Foreign and local companies
are investing huge amounts of capital into the economy not only in the traditional urban
centers but also in the countryside. Technology is the biggest factor in the developments
that are sweeping the world. Previous business and management practices which were
extremely successful in the past are rapidly facing competition in forms and situations
that never existed before.
Management is evolving so
fast that practices, even current ones are being threatened with obsolescence before they
can even established. Institutions have to adjust to these trends. Programs have to be
more relevant. It is a time to change. John F. Kennedy once stated "those that live
in the past and the present cannot be ready for the future". In De La Salle Lipa, we live
the future now…
De La Salle Lipa is an
educational institution strategically located in the heart of the most populated province,
of the most populated region in the Philippines today. It caters to the educational needs
of a growing population in the center of the major government developmental thrust in the
Southern Tagalog region – the CALABARZON project.
There is a shortage of
experience and skilled management practitioners in the area that many employees are
recruited from Manila or even abroad. The increasing demand for masteral graduates at home
with technology cannot be matched by the current output of the educational system.
De La Salle Lipa has been
traditionally a net contributor of trained manpower. It intends to be an active resource
for young men and women needed by the rapidly developing economies of Batangas, Region IV
and the Philippines. It has a track record of performance in various educational fields
that has placed it among the most prestigious schools of the region.
De La Salle Lipa is part of
the network of De La Salle institutions that continue the tradition of excellence,
community spirit and relevance.
