TelAviv International School of Management (TISOM), TelAviv, Israel (August 1996 - August 1997)

"Andy was my student and graduate research assistant at the Tel Aviv International School of Management (TISOM) in Israel from 1996-97.

He was only one of three students from India and one of only eight from Asia to be awarded a full scholarship of US $ 30,000, based on his exceptional academic credentials and experience.

As my graduate research assistant he researched and helped create course curriculum of an exceptional quality for a new course in high-technology marketing that was being taught for the very first time. He led a team of four international students on a market research project for an Israeli small-office products company and helped them identify untapped market segments in North-America for their new product line. The market research was outstanding in terms of its depth, analysis and deliverables and the client was more than happy.

Andy graduated with distinction from the TISOM MBA program, standing second in the graduating class of 45 students drawn from 16 countries around the world. His performance as a MBA student, graduate research assistant and market researcher far exceeded my expectations - and I have high expectations.

I am confident that he will contribute immensely to any company or country he joins."
