Idle ramblings of a wandering mind...

One of the reasons I decided to do a PhD was that I wanted to teach. Now, PhD programs are usually a lot more about research than teaching. However, I have managed to do fair bit of teaching and teaching related work. Details of my teaching activities are on my teaching page.

I independently taught the BIT 311 - Decision Support with Excel (for BBAs) course this spring. I was the teaching assistant for the BIT 582 - Enterprise Systems Strategy (for MBAs) course last fall and I am continuing with the same responsibility this fall as well. In my two years with this course, this course has seen more than a doubling of enrollments and a significant increase in evaluations.

I have had the opportunity to write some teaching case studies as part of the Center for Global Resource Leverage: India. These case studies (and the corresponding teaching notes) are available on request for potential teaching or other non-commercial use. Many of these cases are already being used at Ross (especially in BIT 582). Following are the case studies which are substantially finished:

• Evalueserve: Outsourcing Expert Knowledge Services
• 24/7 Customer: Business Process Outsourcing
• IT Enabled Business Processes for Rural Retail Ecosystem: The Case of ITC
• ICICI: Leveraging Technology in Financial Services
• Madras Cements Ltd.: Achieving Operational Efficiency through IT
• Marketics: Providing Actionable Marketing Analytics
• A Different Story on Joint Ventures in Emerging Economies: TVS-Suzuki

I hope all this teaching experience will come handy when I start teaching as a business school faculty.
