School
of
Business
professor
Param
Srikantia
is
much
more
than
your
typical
educator.
Now,
he
can
add
"TEDx
Talker"
to
his
long
list
of
accomplishments.
In addition to a deep professional business and academic resume, Srikantia, a former television host in India, knows how to entertain and energize a live audience.
Over the years, he has gained traction for various iterations of a seminar series that started out as a popular presentation to the BW MBA Association titled "Why Life Sucks." Branching out from there, Srikantia has presented to more than 25,000 participants with talks in Cleveland, Boston, New York, Washington, Chicago, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and San Francisco.
Srikantia's
aim
is
to
get
people
to
realize
that
what
they
should
truly
be
searching
for
in
life
is
not
the
extraordinary,
but
rather
what
they
already
have
inside
of
themselves.
"The common thread in my seminars is the use of diverse methods and perspectives from across the world that enable us to tap into the deepest reservoirs of human potential," he says.
After years of growing his audience, Srikantia was chosen to give a highly condensed version of "Why Life Sucks" at TEDx Syracuse University in New York.
And the invitations to speak keep rolling in, with the World Bank Group/IMF and the Economic Research Service of the FDA among those reaching out to book him.
Of course, BW business students can soak up the wisdom of "Param" simply by signing up for one of his classes.
