Online, April 2, 2012 (Newswire.com) - To be a runner up in an international competition, where faculty members of major business schools presented best of their unpublished work, speaks volumes about the excellent analytical work of Dr. V S Pai.
Students at KIAMS are painting the town red on their professor's Chak De Phatte kind of success. "We are really not surprised because he has an uncanny ability to explain the most difficult of problems in the easiest possible way," says PGDM student Drishya.
"What we like the most is that he goes beyond the text books and connects everything with the present scenario and developments. This really kind of hooks students to his class," says PGDM student Rohit, another die-hard fan of Dr. V S Pai.
Although, with more than two decades of experience under his belt, Dr. V S Pai never took the competition lightly and always knew his work needed to be elaborate and analytical in order to come in the first three. His writing work explained how Tata Teleservices entered into a joint venture with NPC DoCoMo of Japan to improve the performance of their telecom venture.
Management theories and practices are fast evolving in the present business scenario where mergers and acquisitions have long become a norm. Challenges faced by business are myriad and new, requiring managers to think on the feet and develop a truly international perspective. Kirloskar Institute of Advanced Management Studies has a reputation to groom future business leaders in the art of not only surviving but also outshining in the competitive world of business.
"We at KIAMS are fortunate to have an experienced and talented faculty member like Dr. Pai, whose international exposure will help students develop international perspective and transform into world class business leaders," says Dr. Gopal Iyengar, Director of KIAMS.
Dr. Pai has some advice for the students. "There is no short cut to excellence and this holds true for everyone. I keep updating my knowledge and skills, and writing papers is a kind of passion for me" says Dr. V. S. Pai. "Awards and recognition always follow tenacity, so keep your goal in mind and toil hard to achieve it," advises Dr. Pai to his students. But he warns against being workaholic as it saps one of energy and life. "Work hard and party harder has been my mantra and it has worked very well for me till today," laughs Dr. Pai.
