Current research interests: My current area of research interest is in the field of Industrial psychology wherein, I’m inquisitive towards studying, analyzing and understanding human behavior in the workplace specifically the education sector. Teachers / Academicians are the sculptures of
young minds. They are responsible for awakening and igniting the curiosity and passion for learning among blooming minds. But, quite often the difficulties and challenges faced by them go unnoticed. Since the services offered by academicians are qualitative, their effort of complying with the
standards of the several accreditation bodies, job roles and demands, management’s expectations are seldom appreciated and rewarded. This research area thus provides me an opportunity to study the attitude, emotions, perceptions, behavior and the likely reasons for job stress among academicians which will have its impact on the overall effective and efficient functioning of the college/institute/universities. Furthermore, through this research, an attempt can also be made to identify the key reasons for human behavior and provide scientific and reliable solutions to overcome the challenges and problems.
Doctoral Research: My Doctoral research was in the area of Human Resource Management with the research title “Situational analysis of Three Dimensional Management style theory in Mechanistic and Organic structures.” Three Dimensional Management Style Theory, also termed as 3D theory of management was developed by William James Reddin. Through this research an attempt was made to investigate, evaluate and compare the leadership styles in mechanistic and organic structures which are characterized by attributes that are generally contradicting. Further, the research also aimed at identifying the leadership styles that are predominantly followed at different levels of hierarchy in the organization. The research was carried out by considering three manufacturing and three IT firms in and around mysore city. The sample population was selected on the basis of
stratification. Accordingly, the sample was divided into three strata : Top level, middle level and the supervisory level. The required data was collected through LEAD Self and LEAD others inventory developed by Hershey and Blanchard. The results of the research indicated that most of the leaders
in the firms considered for the sample followed Integrated style of leadership with equal emphasis given for both task and relationship orientation.
