About

Overview

Research: My research is in the area of technology and innovation management. Empirically, I have studied several industries including high-tech, software, healthcare, fintech, cultural & creative industries. I am also interested in the influence of governance on innovation and in that context, I have studied family-owned and employee-owned businesses. My research has been recognised by the Academy of Management (Nomination for the Carolyn Dexter Award from Technology and Innovation Management Division) and the International Society for Professional Innovation Management (ISPIM – Top 3 doctoral dissertation award).

Teaching: I am currently the course director for the Global MBA. I enjoy teaching topics in technology, innovation, and strategy. My teaching has been recognised by several awards including the City Icon’s award – Celebrating 150 years of excellence in teaching and innovation, The Chancellor’s Award – City University’s highest award in recognition of excellence in learning and teaching, The Business School Learning and Teaching Award, and the Student’s Union nomination for excellence in teaching.

Consulting: I have widely consulted and lectured at various industry and academic forums on resilience, innovation management, machine learning & AI for managers, distributed product development, outsourcing and offshoring strategies. Before joining Bayes, I worked with leading firms in the software industry (SAP and Accenture). My latest book "The Resilient Decision Maker" (With Joseph Lampel & Ajay Bhalla) explores the role of individual, team, and leadership resilience in decision making.
