State University where he teaches Management (Business Ethics,Organizational Behavior) and Entrepreneurship. Dr. Shinde enjoys
conducting research in disciplines such as workplace spirituality,
entrepreneurship, ethics and social responsibility.
Dr. Shinde’s teaching philosophy and style is based on providing his students with
holistic perspectives in business by bringing the latest research and
developments to the classroom. His priority is to see students succeed by
preparing them for a dynamic job market in a globalized society but with
immense awareness of their potential as agents of positive change. Teaching for
Dr. Shinde is a joy — a means to make a difference and to contribute in
whatever small way towards building a beautiful future. He considers it an ever
evolving learning process. The idea is to find balance; becoming, in the words
of Mahatma Gandhi, a “practical idealist.”
Towards this end, Dr. Shinde continues to pursue an active research agenda and his work
has been published in peer reviewed journals such as Accounting Education (2021),
the Journal of Human Values (2018), and the Journal of Organizational
Psychology (2015). He has also presented in several peer reviewed academic
conferences including those held by the Western Academy of Management and the
Southwest Academy of Management, where he has in the past served as Track Chair
for the Division of Social Responsibility and Ethics. Dr. Shinde’s research
interests include eclectic topics such as Spirituality in the Workplace,
Mindfulness in Business, Entrepreneurship, Business Ethics, and Social
Responsibility.
