本帖隐藏的内容
A seven-time recipient of Stern's "Professor of the Year" award, Damodaran practices open-source teaching, posting almost all his class materials on his blog. He's also one of the few business school professors to have inspired a tribute video on Youtube; the video spoofs pop star Justin Bieber's Never Say Never movie trailer. In the 89-second clip, the handiwork of a student, Damodaran proclaims "I want to be the Lady Gaga of finance." He has more than 4,000 followers on Twitter.2. Gautam Ahuja
Strategy professor at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business
Ahuja ran a stoneware distribution business and designed educational board games while an undergraduate in his native India before enrolling at Ross in 1991 for his Ph.D., his MA and his MBA. He never left. The corporate strategy professor stresses the importance of integrity and generosity in his lectures - values he says were handed down from his mother and grandmother. Ahuja also oversees the school's chapter of Net Impact, a national organization dedicated to using the power of business to improve society and the environment.
3. Jim Nolen
Distinguished senior lecturer in corporate finance and entrepreneurship at the University of Texas at Austin McCombs School of Business
Nolen has been on the faculty at his alma mater since 1980. In that time he has built up legions of fans. Former students describe him as a world-class storyteller (complete with a Texas accent) who brings his own experience as a small-business consultant to bear in lectures. Nolen's skills extend beyond the classroom: He "places more students than career services," says one former student, Q Beck.
4. Shane Dikolli
Associate professor of accounting at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business
Accounting: It's the spinach on the MBA menu of courses -- fortifying but not tasty. Dikolli, an Australian who briefly worked for KPMG before devoting himself full-time to academia, has apparently found a way to make it palatable. One way he endears himself to students is by memorizing their names and faces before class begins. Dikolli makes a point of attending many of the events and socials students invite him to with his family and children in tow, said a former student, Charles Scrase; most faculty members show up less than 10 percent of the time. "Shane could teach you the history of the cotton ball and you'd leave enthused about its potential," said former student Barr Blanton, a 2011 graduate. "He's inspiring. Anything I ever do in my life, I want to do it with the same vigor and commitment that Shane does his job."
5. Terry Taylor
Associate professor of operations and information technology management at the University of California, Berkeley Haas School of Business
Taylor has only been teaching for ten years. But at Berkeley, he's already made his mark. Students rate his core operations management class as one of the most useful in the MBA program, according to Haas; before his arrival, it was rated the least relevant. His colleagues say he comes to class well-prepared. For a case study on a confectioner, he brought - what else? - cookies. When a colleague took baby leave, Taylor volunteered to teach his weekend courses in addition to his own work.
6. Raymond Hill
Associate finance professor at Emory University's Goizueta Business School
Raymond Hill brings years of work experience to his finance and economics classes, including 11 years as an investment banker at Lehman Brothers and 10 years with Southern Company, including 18 months as a CEO at an Asian power subsidiary. The former Fulbright scholar engages his class with current events and can educate even the most learned student in economics, while making sure not to leave econ-newcomers in his intellectual dust, according to a former student, Reed Moore.
7. Sharon Oster
Dean and management professor at the Yale School of Management
Oster is the only woman on our list. Her textbook "Modern Competitive Analysis" has five stars on Amazon.com and was called "A blockbuster of a book" in the reviews. A former student, Alan Carniol, says her Rolodex includes the name of every Yale SOM student who has attended while she's taught, and that "literally, as we were approaching graduation, she made sure every person walked out of there with a job." When their daughter Emily was a toddler, Oster and her husband, fellow Yale economist Ray Fair, recorded her talking before she would go to sleep. The analysis of those tapes was turned into a book, "Conversations from the Crib." Emily Oster is now an economist at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
8. Neil Morgan
Associate marketing professor at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business
On the first day of his marketing strategy class, 2010 graduate Greg Batch recalls, Morgan stood up and told his students "There are too many of you. I'm going to get rid of a quarter of the people here and weed out those who don't want to be here." With a smile. Despite Morgan's seemingly surly attitude, he is the professor Kelley students wish they could have over and over again and voted him their favorite. He's Welsh, not British, though Batch said he and his classmates were never sure what that meant. Students describe him as mischievous and interested in uprooting the status quo in marketing. His advice to students: "Go work for someone better than you."
9. Eric Sussman
Accounting and real estate lecturer at the University of California, Los Angeles Anderson School of Management
Sussman teaches advanced accounting and fundamentals of real estate and has been known to start singing '80s songs in the middle of class, according to a former student. In 1995, Sussman returned to the school where he received his BBA (graduating summa cum laude in 1987) to teach. One former student, Kate Stephenson, says Sussman wins Anderson's "Professor of the Year" award every year he's eligible; he'd win it every time if the winner wasn't required to sit out for a year. Sussman is also the president of a real estate company. In 2007, a landlord-tenant dispute resulted in a protest outside one of his classes. He used the experience as a teaching lesson.
10. Prashant Kale
Associate professor of strategic management at Rice University's Jones Graduate School of Business
A former student described Kale as a leader in class, showing students the art and science of strategy. Kale is an effective communicator who digs deep into students' answers, exposing when someone didn't do the classwork or made an off-the-cuff remark. Kale has been teaching at Jones since 2007; before that, he taught at Ross from 1999 until 2007. Kale's 2000 paper "Learning and protection of proprietary assets in strategic alliances" has been cited 1,282 times, according to Google Scholar. Although that doesn't sound a lot, comparatively, he's a scholarly rock star
