Dr. Shathees Baskaran
Associate Professor in Strategic ManagementI am a practicing academic specialising in strategic management, integrating research, teaching, and applied work to support organisations, institutions, and leaders in addressing complex challenges and creating meaningful, sustainable impact.
Identity
I am an academic and practitioner committed to thoughtful inquiry, responsible leadership, and meaningful engagement with real-world challenges.
Purpose
I seek to advance knowledge and practice by bridging theory, evidence, and context to create learning and impact that matter.
Character
I value integrity, humility, and intellectual honesty, and I strive to act with consistency, fairness, and respect in all that I do.
I am an academic who believes that scholarship has purpose only when it moves people and organisations forward. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, organizational transformation, and performance management, fields that shape how we think, teach, lead, and build institutions for the future.
My academic journey has never been confined to classrooms or journals. I see myself as a practicing academician, one who blends theory with lived organisational challenges, collaborates with practitioners, and turns ideas into impact. This balance of research, teaching, and real-world practice defines who I am and how I contribute.
I value clarity, relevance, and empathy. I design learning experiences that challenge assumptions, research that addresses real organisational questions, and interventions that help people unlock better decisions. My work is driven by a simple belief: knowledge must lead to action.
