Professional Affiliations & Contributions

We learn more about a subject when we start teaching it to others. The urge to pursue research and passion for teaching enables me to adopt a student centric teaching methodology. Developing live cases and caselets is a pedagogy which I adopt in the classes. This enables the students to have a 360 degree learning about the application of the concepts in the real time corporate scenario. As a part of the teaching agenda , I also help to develop a entrepreneur mind set in the students and give them exposures to the start ups through the research agenda.

There are healthy and heated discussions and debates over the various recent happening of the corporate sector .Simulated exercises help the students to grasp the concepts in an interesting way , making learning a fun.

The focus of my teaching agenda is to create an inquisitive mind in the students to help them take up innovative business ideas and develop their own start-ups so that they can be job providers and can contribute towards the building up on the community and Nation as such.
