I believe that effective teaching goes beyond delivering knowledge – it is about cultivating curiosity, critical thinking, and confidence in applying ideas to real-world contexts.

With more than two decades of full-time university teaching experience, I have developed a deeply experiential approach that integrates strategy, technology, hands-on experience, and reflection, encouraging students not only to understand systems but to think critically about how technology shapes organizations and society. My passion for teaching remains the reason I continue to find fulfillment in academia – it is in the classroom, both physical and virtual, that ideas come alive!

Experiential learning (ExL) is the cornerstone of my teaching practice. I design my courses so that students learn by doing – through case analysis, live simulations, technology workshops, and interactions with industry professionals. These methods help students bridge theory with practice and develop confidence in applying what they learn.

Key experiential elements include:

• Case Discussions that link theory with real-world challenges.
• Technology Workshops & Walkthroughs that build practical digital skills.
• Guest Speakers from alumni and industry who bring professional insights.
• Simulations that recreate decision-making in dynamic business and cybersecurity contexts.

This approach ensures that students engage deeply with material, collaborate across disciplines, and develop transferable skills essential for lifelong learning and leadership.

I have supervised and mentored more than 60 graduate students (PhD, MSc thesis, and project-based) across topics such as AI governance, human-AI collaboration, cybersecurity, blockchain, UX, and digital transformation.

Many of my students have gone on to leadership roles in industry and academia, and I continue to collaborate with several through joint publications and research projects.
