Biography

Bayes Business School

Martin Rich initially worked in the information systems sector as a consultant and project manager, before joining Cass Business School as a lecturer. During his career at Cass his work has focused on applying the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning to management education.

His teaching at Cass has spanned undergraduate, specialist masters, and MBA students. He has always regarded pedagogic scholarship as part of the development of teaching materials, and has sought to ensure that my teaching approach is always grounded in appropriate pedagogic literature. His approach recognises the importance of combining innovative and interactive methods of education with more traditional and formal methods.

He has published around pedagogy in management education, and the implications for management education of changes in technology and in the business environment, and is a frequent contributor to conferences and an active member of communities of scholars working in this field.
