Dr. Shalini was in her Post Graduation days when she first sat down to compile her research work. “It still makes me smile. I believe there was no one singular definitive moment when I wanted to focus on my areas of interest. It can well be described as an urge- an urge that makes you look deeper into things, phenomenon, their causes and their effects,” explains the professor of HR and OB of Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida. Her students rave about her. She is not just widely accepted as an academician but is mentor to many of the aspiring, young Managers who wish to carve out a career like that of her.

With nearly 50 research papers in her name, Dr. Shalini Srivastava’s papers have made it to some of the widely read, national and international journals since she started her career as a researcher come academician. In 2013, Emerald conferred her an award for “Leader Effectiveness in Emerging Markets: An Empirical Study of the Managers in India” by publishing her work in Journal of Technology Management in China as a Highly Commended Paper of 2013. From being reviewer of various referred Journals like Personnel Review-Emerald (A Category Journal), International Journal of Organisational Analysis-Emerald (A Category Journal), Human Resource Development Quarterly- an International Journal of School of Economics and Management, Tsinghua University, Beijing, P. R. China, South Asian Journal of Management (SAJM) and Sage, among many, Prof. Srivastava is currently the Associate Dean, Research and Publications at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida.

“If you love research- you will take out time for it. It is that simple!” explains the avid researcher on being asked about her time management. “If I love doing something, I will do it; time can’t be a constraint,” she adds. Prof. Srivastava looks
after the research activities at the B-school. She firmly believes, that a good researcher does not necessarily need a muse. “I am my own muse,” says Prof. Srivastava, smilingly.
