The success story of the Hyderabad Metro Rail (HMR) project execution has been published as a case study for the benefit of management practitioners and students by the world famous Stanford University in a rare honour in the field of management studies.
A study done by an ISB team under the leadership of Prof Ram Nidumolu on the Hyderabad Metro rail found place in the latest spring 2024 issue of ‘Stanford Social Innovation Review’ (SSIR) amidst stiff global competition from several other similar studies, said an official release on Sunday.
SSIR is a prestigious quarterly journal of Stanford University that publishes impactful and path-breaking projects, leadership styles, etc., which offer innovative solutions to the world’s endemic problems. The case study brings out the “extraordinary” skill sets displayed by HMR Managing Director NVS Reddy and his team in handling a plethora of sensitive issues and agitations to make the near impossible PPP (public, private partnership) metro rail project a reality.
