Mr. Ugyen has taught in the business department at the Royal Thimphu College as a senior lecturer. He taught varied subjects such as international business, business ethics, negotiations, research, marketing, analytical skills and tourism. He also worked as an assistant documentation officer at the National Assembly Secretariat, RGOB, as an assistant manager at Bhutan Power Corporation Limited in the Human Resource and Administration Department and as a SEO consultant at Domain.com, Inc at Boulder City, NV, United States. Further, he worked as a professional licensed senior tour guide in Bhutan.
He strongly believes that it is always better to refer to works of well renowned researchers and scholars from world renowned universities with adequate or generous budget because research is not everyone’s cup of tea.
Due to work related pressures, he jointly published a paper with Dr. Aaditya Pradhan on ‘Financial Performance Analysis of Bank of Bhutan Limited using Regression Analysis’ in the International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (IJTSRD); and another paper with Dr. Sourav Basu and Tshering Yangchen on ‘Impact of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) Practices on Norbuling Rigter College (NRC) Staff Job Satisfaction’ in the American Journal of Social and Humanitarian Research along These two papers, according to him, is a stepping stone to the world of research for him. The joint publication of these two papers, according to Ugyen, is also an example of the indispensability of collaboration. Co teaching of a module at NRC is another good practice of collaboration because it helps us to understand what our weaknesses are and how to strengthen them.
With long years of teaching and industry experience, Ugyen Thinlay will enhance the learning of his students.
