About

Professor of Marketing | Dean – Research & Doctoral Program | Former Industry Leader With over 36 years of experience spanning industry leadership and academic excellence, I currently serve as Professor of Marketing and Dean – Research at IMT Ghaziabad. My professional journey has been shaped by a deep commitment to bridging the worlds of practice and scholarship. Before joining academia, I spent over two decades in industry across strategic marketing, sales transformation, and leadership roles—experience that continues to inform my teaching and institutional vision. As a researcher, I focus on the intersection of B2B marketing, sales enablement, and emerging technologies. My work has been published in reputed journals and aims to make scholarly contributions that are both rigorous and relevant to practice. I’m equally invested in mentoring faculty and doctoral scholars, fostering a culture of inquiry, innovation, and impact. I am energized by the opportunity to take on larger institutional leadership roles. I bring with me not just academic depth, but also the operational perspective and strategic mindset necessary to lead a modern business school.
