“Dr. Kaushik taught me the Sustainable Business Practices subject at the University of Melbourne. The 6 weeks experience was full of learning, excitement, and lots of inspiration.

During this time, he shared some really valuable lessons about how corporations work, financial benefits of ethical and sustainable practices for a business, shareholder values, reporting frameworks, and developing sustainable business models. His knowledge and passion in these areas were palpable from his enthusiastic delivery.

I especially liked the anecdotes he shared about his past experiences like the challenges of getting million-dollar ESG projects approved from higher leaderships. He ensured that each member of the class was not just a passive observer but actively engaged and understood the concepts of sustainable development.

I am certain that his motivation and guidance will serve as my compass, guiding me towards a position where I can make a tangible positive impact and foster “business as unusual” practices.
