Pankaj Ghemawat is one of those people who combine academic knowledge with business acumen. Professor at the Harvard Business School for 25 years, he currently lectures at the Anselmo Rubiralta Centre for Globalisation and Strategy at IESE Business School.
Ghemawat's research focuses on globalisation and strategy. He has written over 50 articles and case studies on these subjects. His paper, "Regional Strategies for Global Leadership", published in the Harvard Business Review in 2005, was awarded the McKinsey prize to the best article. Other recent publications include: "Managing Differences: The Central Challenge in Global Strategy" (Harvard Business Review) and "Why the World Isn't Flat" (Foreign Policy). Ghemawat also keeps a blog on global strategy for Harvard Business Online titled "What in the World".

In September 2007, Harvard Business School Press published, "Redefining Global Strategy", which synthesises and builds on Ghemawat's work on this subject. This book is a strategic guide for leaders in the 21st century who manage globally integrated entities. It offers a pragmatic and revealing approach: it builds on the historical paths of globalisation but takes into account the real decisions business leaders must make on a daily basis. Other works include: "Commitment", "Games Businesses Play" or "Strategy and the Business Landscape". Furthermore, Ghemawat is editor at the strategy department at "Management Science", as well as other publications.

In 2007, Ghemawat was elected a member of the Academy of International Business. In August 2008, the California Management Academy presented him with the Irwin Outstanding Educator Award, becoming the first lecturer at a European business school to ever obtain this prize. In October that same year he became a member of the Strategic Management Society. Also in 2008, he received the IESE and BBVA Foundation's "Economics for Management" award.
Ghemawat holds a BSc in Applied Mathematics from Harvard University, where he also gained his PhD in Business Economics. He later worked as an advisor at the London firm McKinsey & Company. In 1983 he joined the teaching staff at Harvard Business School where, in 1991, he became the youngest academic in the faculty's history to become a full-professor. He remained in Harvard 25 years and joined the faculty at IESE in 2006 .
