Deepender Hooda, Congress MP from Haryana, has been named a leader-in-residence at Indiana University's business school for his leadership qualities.

Hooda, 37, an alumnus of Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, has been named a leader-in-residence at the school's Poling Chair of Business and Government, a statement said.

The Poling Chair was established in 1993 by the late Harold "Red" Poling, a Kelley School alumnus and Ford Motor Co chairman and CEO from 1985 to 1994.

As part of this Hooda will make periodic trips to the Kelley School in Bloomington and Indianapolis, where he will interact with students and faculty, the university said in a media release.
 

Hooda is an alumnus of Indiana University's Kelley School.

"I'm excited at the prospect of being back in Bloomington after a span of about 12 years," Hooda said.

Kelley School Dean Idalene "Idie" Kesner said Hooda was her student while studying for his MBA, and she said he was very engaged in the Kelley experience.

"He represents the leadership talent that Kelley produces," said Kesner, who also holds the Frank P Popoff Chair of Strategic Management.

"He took the skills he learned here and made major contributions to his country, and we are very proud and excited that he has accepted this opportunity to share his unique international perspective with today's Kelley students," Kesner said.

A third-term MP, Hooda represents Rohtak in Lok Sabha.
