Welcome 

Thank you for visiting

Hello and thank you for visiting. My name is Sergei Kolomeitsev, and I am an Assistant Professor at Meredith College where my research and teaching are focused on strategy and entrepreneurship. I graduated with a Ph.D. in Management from the University of Arkansas in 2022 as a Sam M. Walton College of Business Distinguished Doctoral Fellow.

I think I have the best job in the world as I love the combination of research and teaching. Generally speaking, my research examines the relationship of political factors and political signals with perception, behavior, and performance of startups and established firms. My research has been published in top journals such as Academy of Management Journal and Journal of Management.     

While I enjoy research a great deal, I am equally passionate about teaching. When it comes to teaching, I try to make my classrooms be heavy on discussion, collaboration, and general engagement. Further, limited lecture is utilized to setup the discussions and to bring the latest research into the classroom. 

When I am not working, I mainly enjoy playing sports, and lately have been playing lots of volleyball.
