Celebrating Excellence: Dr. Jinia Mukerjee Honored with the Hind Rattan Award 2024

Celebrating Excellence: we are thrilled to announce that the Head of the Department of Strategy & Entrepreneurship of the MBS Faculty, Dr. Jinia Mukerjee, has been awarded the prestigious Hind Rattan Award 2024.

The ceremony, held in New Delhi on the eve of India’s Republic Day, recognized Dr. Mukerjee for her “outstanding services, achievements, and contributions to society.” The Hind Rattan is among the highest Indian diasporic honors awarded to non-resident persons of Indian origin (NRIs) by the NRI Welfare Society of India.

In addition to this achievement, Dr. Mukerjee has been making significant contributions to the academic world. Last August, her collaborative study with Dr. Anca Metiu, titled “Play and psychological safety: An ethnography of innovative work,” earned the OMT Division’s Best International Paper Award from the Academy of Management. This work showcases the interplay between phases of professional commitment and playful exploration, culminating in a symbiotic relationship that fosters creativity.

This dual recognition reflects Dr. Jinia Mukerjee’s dedication to groundbreaking research and her significant impact on both academia and business community. Congratulations !
