The 'Rocky' Experience At IIM Sirmaur

He took only ten sessions on the subject, but enthralled the students about the subject and sparked interest in the topic helping me in consolidating my decision to take subjects related to the stodgy field of Operations. His methodology just like his way of living was straightforward yet so rare among professors, simplicity. His way of teaching incorporated a methodology which mitigated a common error student make, paralysis by analysis. When the concepts are so clear & understood by the student, there is no margin for paralysis.

And just like supply chain, the difference between success and failure is not about choosing one strategy over other, but having the right mix of approaches for any given condition. The approach of fostering an atmosphere of engagement just seems to have worked for me.
