Abhirup Chakrabarti joined McGill’s Desautels Faculty of Management in 2007. Dr. Chakrabarti graduated from Duke University with a PhD degree in Business Administration, and has previously attended Presidency College Calcutta, the Indian Statistical Institute Delhi, and the National University of Singapore.

Dr. Chakrabarti studies questions of business dynamics, exploring how organizations reconfigure and adapt with boundary decisions of retrenchment and growth. He is currently involved in projects that explore (1) the external and spatial search for organizational resources, (2) organizational decline and turnaround during economic recessions, and (3) post expansion integration. His work has appeared in Organization Science, Strategic Management Journal, and Global Strategy Journal; and has featured in the Academy of Management, Academy of International Business, and Strategic Management Society meetings. Dr Chakrabarti serves on the Editorial Boards of the IIMB Management Review and the Strategic Management Journal.

At McGill, Dr. Chakrabarti teaches Managing Globalization at the B.Com. and MBA levels, and Organization Growth and Acquisitions Strategy at the executive level, where he has also co-directed the Analytic Mindset Module of the McGill-HEC Montreal EMBA program. He has previously taught Competitive Strategy to undergraduate students at Duke University, Applied Econometrics to PhD students at the National University of Singapore, and International Business to undergraduate students at McGill University.
