Dr. Samuel Paul (11 April 1930 – 26 October 2015)[1] was an Indian scholar, economist, former visiting professor at Harvard Business School, advisor to the World Bank and the UN Commission on Transnational Corporations, and was a professor and the second director of the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad.[2]

He served from 8 September 1972 to 30 June 1978. He also taught at the Kennedy School of Government and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public Affairs, Princeton University. Upon his return from Washington to India, he pioneered the creation of citizen report cards, a tool for social accountability. He later went on to be the founding chairperson of a new think tank, the Public Affairs Centre India that has taken his work forward. Other organisations that he helped launch are the Public Affairs Foundation, the Coalition Against Corruption and the Children's Movement for Civic Awareness. He had also been on the Boards of the State Bank of India and several international research centres. In recent years, his focus had been on public governance and related issues. He was the first Asian to be awarded the Jit Gill Memorial Award by the World Bank, in 2006.[3][4] Paul was also the recipient of the Fred Riggs Award of the American Society of Public Administration, and the Nohria award of the All India Management Association. Government of India honoured him with Padma Shri in 2004.[5]
