In August 2010, Sokol Celo<\/strong>, a doctoral student in the Department of Management and International Business at Florida International University (FIU), reached a high point in his academic career. He was among the six winners of the Academy of Management\u2019s International Management Division\u2019s \u201cMost Promising Dissertation Proposal Award<\/a>.\u201d His proposal was titled \u201cBounded Rationality and Its Effects on International Managerial Decision Making and MNE Performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

It would be hard to top that achievement, but he did . . . and once again, his dissertation came into play. In late 2010, he accepted a job as an assistant professor in the Strategy and International Business Department, Sawyer Business School, Suffolk University in Boston, Massachusetts. During his round of interviews, he met with the dean, William O\u2019Neill, former CEO of Polaroid. A discussion about decision making ensued.<\/p>\n

\u201cI started to talk about my research and he started to talk about his own experiences,\u201d Celo said. \u201cTo have the former CEO of a large company give me his insights, and to have him discuss my ideas, was great and the interview went longer than scheduled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Professors share Celo\u2019s excitement.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cOur work with doctoral students is validated when our students get strong offers like this one during a \u2018buyers market\u2019 in which the competition is fierce for a small number of positions,\u201d said Galen Kroeck<\/strong>, department chair.<\/p>\n

For Aya Chacar<\/strong>, associate professor and chair of Celo\u2019s dissertation committee, his success validates his \u201cextreme hard work, dedication and talent, and his willingness to lend a hand to anyone in need, and always with a smile. The accomplishment also validates the significant investment the College of Business Administration and our department have made in our PhD program, which is our way to give back to the community and to the future of education.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though 2010 was an exceptionally gratifying year for Celo, Kroeck foresees even more success for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe best part is that this is just the beginning of his career and the pride we will all feel as he continues his publication stream,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
