Prof. Durairaj Maheswaran

Gjesteforedragsholder – Professor Durairaj MaheswaranProfessor Durairaj

Professor Durairaj ”Mahesh” Maheswaran ledet doktorgradskollokviet og hadde to innlegg som gjesteforedragsholder ved Johan Arndt konferansen på NHH i 2008. Professor Mahesh er redaktør av Journal of Consumer Psychology (JCP) og fokuserte naturlig nok på publiseringsstrategier i doktorgradskollokviet. I  plenumsinnlegget for forskningsmiljøet viste han hvordan JCP har utviklet seg som journal og beveger seg inn i teten av journaler for publisering av forskning i markedsføring. Han holdt også et foredrag om ”nation equity” hvor holdninger til nasjoners omdømme og sentrale merkevarer ble satt i et internasjonalt perspektiv (les mer her). 

Professor Mahesh er ansatt ved Stern School of Business – New York University. Han har publisert flerfoldige artikler i de mest betydningsfulle journalene i markedsføring og i tillegg til forskning på markedsføring på tvers av kulturer har han også bidratt innen internasjonal markedsføring og holdningsteori (les mer på NYU sine sider her).
