Biography edit

Grover received his B.Tech. in electrical engineering in 1982 from the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, his MBA in 1985 from Southern Illinois University, and his Ph.D. in management information systems in 1990 from the University of Pittsburgh.[5]

After his graduation in New Delhi, Grover started as marketing analyst in 1982–83. Next in the United States he was graduate research assistant at the Southern Illinois University from 1983 to 1985, and at the Katz Graduate School of Business of the University of Pittsburgh from 1985 to 1988. After another year as lecturer at Pitt he moved to the University of South Carolina, where he became assistant professor, in 1994 associate professor, and from 1998 to 2001 full professor (BPF Professor and Distinguished Researcher). From 2002 to 2017 he was the William S. Lee (Duke Energy) Chaired Full Professor at the College of Business & Behavioral Sciences of the Clemson University.[5]

Currently, Grover is the George & Boyce Billingsley Endowed Chair and distinguished professor of IS at the Walton College of Business, University of Arkansas.[6] He is senior editor for MISQ Executive, editor of the Journal of the Association for Information Systems Section on Path Breaking Research, and has served as senior editor for MIS Quarterly (2 terms), the Journal of the AIS (2 terms), and Database. He is also current or former associate and advisory Editor of 15 other journals, including the Journal of MIS, Decision Sciences, Information Systems Research, and Information Systems Journal.

Grover is married. His interests include tennis, world travel, and home electronics. He is a deeply loyal fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers NFL team.

Research edit

Grover's research interests include IS value, IS strategy, e-business, KM, reengineering, innovation, the effect of IT on the individual in influencing identity and stress, and introspective work on the IS field and its welfare. While his work employs a positivist epistemology, it is not locked into one philosophy or even methodology. He have conducted field surveys, experimental designs, structured interviews, content analysis, secondary data analyses (e.g., strategic group analysis, event studies), field experiments, and modeling. Most of his work has been published in major refereed journals and he recently co-edited three books on IT and process change. He have received a number of research awards and have been consistently recognized as the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd most productive researcher in widely recognized major (A level) IS journals (e.g., MIS Quarterly, Journal of MIS, Information Systems Research) in ten independent published studies and the 2nd most influential researcher based on citation impact in a recent study. Since 1990, he is the 2nd most published researcher in the prestigious AIS “Basket of 6” journals. He have also participated in various prominent roles in national conferences (e.g., ICIS, DSI, AIS) and is involved in leadership roles (e.g., Senior Editorship) in numerous premier journals.
