Assistant Professor Manu Sharma's Talk on Teaching Management

The Art and Science of Teaching Management: Insights from Dr. Manu Sharma Teaching management is a dynamic and engaging career path that goes beyond imparting knowledge; it’s about inspiring future leaders and innovators. Dr. Manu Sharma, with over a decade of experience, elucidates the vital role that educators play in shaping the minds of students, particularly in the field of management. His journey reflects a blend of passion, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. In this article, we’ll explore what teaching management entails, the educational background required, indispensable skills, the joys and challenges of the profession, and what a typical day looks like for an educator like Dr. Sharma. What Is Teaching Management? Teaching management involves educating students about the principles and practices essential for effective management within organizations. This profession combines theoretical knowledge with practical applications, ensuring that students grasp complex concepts and can apply them in real-world situations. Dr. Sharma emphasizes that management is a crucial aspect of everyday life, stating that understanding how to manage oneself, time, and resources is essential for anyone, regardless of their career path. For example, when guiding students, he explains the fundamental management functions—planning, organizing, directing, and controlling—highlighting their real-world relevance. Education Foundation of Knowledge: Degrees Required To embark on a career in teaching management, obtaining a Master of Business Administration (MBA) is essential. Dr. Sharma's own journey began with his graduation, followed by an MBA from UP Technical University, where he excelled as a gold medalist. This academic achievement provided him with a solid foundation in management principles, which he later expanded by qualifying for the National Eligibility Test (NET) and obtaining his doctorate in advertising. This educational trajectory is a common pathway for aspiring management educators, as it equips them with the necessary expertise to teach at the graduate level. Specializations in Management Various areas within management require distinct knowledge bases. Dr. Sharma highlights key subjects like marketing, strategic management, production, human resources (HR), information technology, and finance as crucial for aspiring educators. Each of these fields has its own unique demands and complexities. For instance, in marketing, understanding recent trends, such as the rise of e-commerce, is vital for teaching students how to navigate contemporary business landscapes effectively. This kind of specialized knowledge enables educators to convey real-time case studies and practical applications, making the learning experience relevant and engaging. Skills Presentation Skills: The Art of Communication Dr. Sharma emphasizes that effective teaching hinges on strong presentation and communication skills. Educators must be adept at transforming complex concepts into accessible ideas for diverse groups of students. For instance, he uses PowerPoint presentations and engaging multimedia tools to enhance his lectures, ensuring all students can grasp the material. This adaptability is crucial in addressing different learning styles, keeping students engaged, and fostering a lively classroom atmosphere. Creativity in the Classroom Creativity is another vital skill for educators. Dr. Sharma illustrates this by sharing his approach during a case study on Cucugula, where he brought different flavors to class for a hands-on tasting experience. Such innovative teaching methods not only make lessons more enjoyable but also help students better understand competitive positioning and brand differentiation in marketing. Research Aptitude and Analytical Skills Furthermore, research aptitude is critical for teaching management, as it informs the educator's practice. Dr. Sharma maintains that the best instructors are continuous learners who apply their research to teaching. For instance, he routinely integrates findings from recent articles and studies into his lessons, giving students insights into current industry practices. His analytical skills allow him to break down complex case studies, guiding students in developing their analytical abilities as well. Positives Expertise in a Particular Area One significant advantage of a teaching career in management is the opportunity to develop expertise in a specific area. Dr. Sharma’s dedication to marketing has resulted in in-depth knowledge that enhances his teaching and research. Moreover, this specialization helps him remain informed about current trends and developments, ensuring his teaching remains relevant. Clarity and Continuous Learning Teaching also fosters clarity of thought and continuous learning, enabling educators to refine their understanding and perspectives over time. Dr. Sharma notes that the exchange of ideas with students and peers contributes significantly to his intellectual growth, keeping him abreast of new developments in management and education. Societal Development Perhaps one of the most fulfilling aspects of being an educator is the opportunity to influence societal development. As Dr. Sharma puts it, teachers build society by instilling values and encouraging responsibility among their students. The commitment to fostering not just competent professionals but also conscientious citizens is a vital component of this career. Challenges Domain Selection However, the journey is not without its challenges. One significant hurdle is selecting a specific area of expertise within management. With an expansive syllabus covering over 30 subjects, Dr. Sharma emphasizes the importance of identifying a focused domain early in one's career. This clarity shapes future academic and teaching pursuits. Balance Between Teaching and Research Another challenge lies in balancing teaching obligations with research demands. Creating engaging lessons while simultaneously engaging in research can be daunting. Dr. Sharma illustrates the complexity of this task, highlighting the need for effective time management to achieve proficiency in both areas. Handling Different Mindsets Educators must also navigate diverse student mindsets and knowledge levels. Dr. Sharma faces this challenge daily, tailoring his teaching methods to cater to students with varied academic backgrounds. Such adaptability is crucial for ensuring that all students can follow along and engage with the material effectively. A Day Of Teaching Management In Dr. Sharma's daily routine, a notable evolution has occurred over the years. Initially focused primarily on preparing lectures, his current day resembles a balanced interplay of teaching and research. He begins with planned, engaging lessons, often incorporating current events and recent studies into discussions. This not only enriches the classroom experience but also fosters an inviting environment where students feel comfortable engaging with complex topics. Research still plays a central role in his day, as he dedicates time to exploring recent developments and contributing to his ongoing projects, including a significant post-doctoral study related to IC campaigns in Uttarakhand. By the end of the day, he creates a schedule for the following day, ensuring his professional and personal obligations are harmoniously managed. Conclusion A career in teaching management is profoundly rewarding, offering opportunities to shape the future of business practices while nurturing the next generation of leaders. Dr. Manu Sharma embodies this calling, demonstrating how passion for teaching, coupled with a commitment to continuous learning and societal contribution, can create a fulfilling professional life. For those considering this path, the key lies in finding purpose and passion in teaching—an endeavor that transcends mere job fulfillment, aiming instead for true impact and transformation. Whether you are an aspiring educator or a seasoned professional, embarking on this journey can illuminate both your path and those of your students.
