Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to review scholarly research on employability and skill gap in the context of the Master of Business Administration (MBA) education. This paper provides an overview of the critical themes and identifies research gaps for future investigations. In addition to technical aptitudes and skills, organisations also seek other attributes that are associated with employability, such as communication, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, problem-solving skills and interpersonal skills. Communication is an important skill frequently cited in the literature. Additionally, themes related to reasons for skill gaps are identified. Soft skills and non-technical aptitudes should be emphasised in MBA education. Furthermore, significant reforms in MBA education programmes should be implemented to make graduates industry-ready. Several studies have been carried out to verify the existence of and reasons for skill gaps amongst MBA graduates.
