<p class="MsoNormal">With over 25 years of experience in management education in Information Systems and Digital Transformation I think NICMAR is the perfect place for me to continue my academic journey in a field that is crucial to building our nation.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Throughout my career at places like Symbiosis Centre for Information Technology and International Institute of Management Studies, I have focused on combining technology and management. My expertise in Management Information Systems and AI-driven transformation has allowed me to create programs that are both relevant to the industry and academically sound. NICMAR's focus on infrastructure and project management provides a platform to apply my skills in a field where digital transformation and analytics are becoming increasingly important.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My experience in curriculum design, accreditation processes, and academic governance has prepared me to contribute to NICMAR's quality-driven ecosystem.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another reason I want to join NICMAR is its ties with the industry. Having led programs and admission committees in the past, I understand the importance of aligning delivery with market expectations. At NICMAR I see the opportunity to integrate AI and data-driven decision-making into management education, preparing students for the future.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">My recent completion of the "AI in Business" program from Indian School of Business has further strengthened my desire to contribute to institutions that value innovation. I am keen to contribute to research, teaching, and executive training initiatives that embed these technologies into core management practices at NICMAR.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Beyond academics, NICMAR's emphasis on professionalism, discipline, and ethical responsibility aligns with my values. Having led social responsibility initiatives and mentored students, I believe that management education must cultivate responsible leaders. I see NICMAR as an institution that appreciates this approach.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">I aspire to bring my experience in leadership technology-enabled pedagogy and research orientation to NICMAR while learning from its domain expertise and industry partnerships. I am confident that this association will create a platform for excellence, innovation, and meaningful societal impact.</p>
