Theme: Sustainable Development Goals in the post-pandemic world

As opposed to the traditionalist management view, which highlighted the difficulties in achieving the conflicting goals of “economic benefit” versus “environmental benefits”, the revisionist management view proposes that both can be achieved together, in fact the triple target of “people, profit and planet” are complimentary to each other in the long run. The need of the hour is to align these goal at individual, corporate, country and supranational level. A combination of well-planned environmental friendly policies by regulators and adoption of environmental friendly practices by corporates and individuals or households is the only hope to provide a habitable ecosystem for the next generations.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought the world to a standstill with the travel restrictions and lockdowns imposed by governments worldwide to curb the spread of the deadly virus. The only positive impact of the pandemic is perhaps the drop (although severely insufficient) in pollution across the world with improved air and water quality, clean beaches and environmental noise reduction. As the world restart their economic engines to reach the pre-pandemic levels of productivity, we need to pause and design a greener route this time to ensure a stronger, resilient and sustainable post-pandemic world. As COP26 summit reaffirms the common commitment of the parties across the world to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, we Rajagiri School of Business, Rajagiri School of Social Sciences and Fiji National University (FNU), dedicate this conference to the theme of the greening the recovery from the pandemic through development of sustainable policies and adoption of sustainable practices.

Brief profile of the resource persons

Dr. Ronny Thomas is an Assistant Professor at Rajagiri Business School. He has a Ph.D. in economics and M.Phil in Planning and development from IIT Bombay, Mumbai. He completed his masters in economics from the University of Hyderabad. Prior to joining Rajagiri Centre for Business Studies, he has one and half years of teaching experience at the School of Management Studies, NIT Calicut, Kozhikode. His research interests include international trade and FDI inter-linkage with econometric application and productivity analysis. He has presented his research papers in conferences held at the University of Nottingham, Delhi School of Economics, IIM Bangalore, and IIT Bombay and also published his research work. His teaching interests are managerial economics, microeconomics, applied industrial organization, and applied econometrics.

Dr. Aviral Kumar Tiwari is an Associate Professor at IIM Bodhgaya. Before joining IIM, he served at Rajagiri Business Scholl, Montpellier Business School, France, and at IBS Hyderabad, India. After graduating with a degree in Economics from Lucknow University, India, he received his M.Phil (in Labour Economics) and Ph.D. (in Energy and Environment) from ICFAI University Tripura. His research tends to cross the boundaries of narrowly defined fields as he constantly looks for promising ideas from several perspectives. The majority of his work contributes to the areas of energy economics, environmental economics, international trade, international economics, commodity markets, resources market, tourism, FDI, institutional quality, governance, and many more.  He applies a variety of time-series and panel data approaches, both linear and nonlinear, to validate economic theoretical approaches. He has published in various journals of international repute including top-ranked journals in the prestigious Financial Times 50 list. His previous research has featured in journals such as Journal of Business Ethics, Tourism Management, Annals of Tourism Research, Economics Letters, Energy Economics, International Review of Financial Analysis, Economic Modelling, etc. He has been conferred the Best Researcher Award, in 2015 by GRABS Educational Charitable Trust, Chennai, and a prestigious Prof. M J Manohar Rao Award in 2014 from The Indian Econometric Society for his outstanding research contributions. He is also actively engaged as Editors (and Guest Editors) at different positions at several international journals (indexed in Scopus and ranked by ABDC) published by Wiley, Elsevier, Emerald, Sage, Springer.

Dr. Aby Abraham entered academics with 23 years of professional experience, starting as an engineer on the shop floor to Area Manager to Regional Contracts Manager to Heading Country Operations, with various International firms; like Lloyd’s Register, ABS Group, Bureau Veritas, Velosi etc. This enabled him to have a broad view of real-life business scenarios that is useful in understanding ground realities. He taught as an adjunct faculty at the Business Administration Department of Dubai University College, ICFAI, Dubai campus, AIT, Dubai, and as a TA at XLRI.

Dr. Aby Abraham left the industry to pursue doctoral research at XLRI and submitted his thesis. He looks for ‘meanings of possessions’, leading to the process of meaning-making. Thus, his area of interest covers semiotics to social anthropology in the consumer behavior side of marketing. The cultural changes due to social class change, the impact of technology, and media, do change consumer’s taste, and the resultant possessions and meanings derived; thus making it imperative to understand the process and direction. Country of Origin effects and entry strategies to culturally diverse markets are also of interest.

A pioneer in research and experimental study, Dr. Sitanshu Sekhar Das works with IIM Shillong. Before joining IIM, he served as an Assistant Professor at Rajagiri Business School. He served at IIT Kharagpur as a Research Associate from where he was awarded his Doctoral degree in Management (OB & HR). He always extended his interest in research in topics related to Leadership, Personality, Subjective well-being, Anxiety, Depression and always delivered world-class articles. His urge for finding the least discussed topic and presenting it with a 360-degree view is one of the remarkable qualities that every researcher should look for.

He has conducted and facilitated workshops for students, faculty, and corporate trainees on diverse topics including research methodology, structural equation modeling (SEM), and interpersonal relationship.  He has also presented papers at national and international conferences. He was a part of the team that was responsible for the human resource planning of South Eastern Coalfield Limited (SECL a subsidiary of Coal India Ltd.) for the year 2019-2024
