Hello world!

My name is Basu Sharma, and this is my story. From humble beginnings in Nepal to a Ph.D. in the U.S.A. and a fulfilling academic career in Canada, my journey has been one of perseverance and discovery. Explore my background, my work, and the insights I've gained along the way.

Beyond the ordinary

My name is Basu Sharma (born 29 September 1950 in Nepal). I earned a Ph. D. degree in industrial relations from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, U.S.A. in 1983, and emigrated to Canada in 1984 to work at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon as an Assistant Professor.

A career in academia

From 1985 to 2023, I was a professor of organizational studies at the University of New Brunswick. My academic interests lie in international business, negotiation, and economic development, among others. I've also had the privilege of holding appointments at the National University of Singapore and Tribhuvan University, and consulting for international organizations.

Insights and contributions

My work encompasses over 90 publications, including "Aspects of Industrial Relations in ASEAN." I founded the Journal of Comparative International Management, serving as editor-in-chief for many years. Through my research and writings, I aim to provide useful insights on education, economic development, international management, and business negotiation.
