Mishra’s research focuses on organizational behaviour, with particular emphasis on motivation, leadership, well-being and effective team management. This focus aligns with the RSA’s mission of promoting social progress and reform through innovation, entrepreneurship, and the arts.
“This recognition by the Royal Society of Arts is a great honour,” said Mishra adding, “It validates the importance of my research in creating positive and productive work environments. I am excited to contribute to the RSA’s ongoing efforts to build a better future for all.”
Amit’s academic journey includes a Bachelor’s degree in Physics, a Master’s degree from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) Hyderabad, and a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) from IMT Ghaziabad. Currently, he is undergoing his research training at IMT Hyderabad. Earlier this year, he was awarded the prestigious Dr. Ram Tarneja Award for his contributions to management literature.
The Royal Society of Arts, established in 1754, is a community of 30,000 innovators and thought leaders. The RSA fellowship includes distinguished figures such as Charles Dickens, Benjamin Franklin, Stephen Hawking, and Nelson Mandela.
