Empowering Academics: Turn Your Teaching Expertise into High-Impact Research

    

 

  • Introduction

As academicians, we all strive to build our reputation as thought leaders, valued by institutions, regulators, the academic community, and industry alike. Yet many of us wrestle with questions: Should our research focus solely on scholarly theory, or aim for practical, practitioner-oriented outcomes? How do we select cutting-edge topics that go beyond popular debates? And most importantly, how can we successfully navigate the rigorous processes of top-tier journals?

Black Orange Talent Executive’s Faculty Development Program (FDP) on Designing and Publishing High-Quality Research is crafted to address these concerns head-on. Over four days (August 20-23, 2025) at ISB&M Pune, this intensive program equips you with the tools, frameworks, and networks to transform everyday teaching challenges into publishable contributions.
