What are the key factors that keep you connected with the education sector?

"As education improves our own and other's life too, this philosophy is the reason of my association with the education sector"

We all are aware that education makes us better citizens by teaching us how to conduct ourselves through life by following rules and regulations and it also gives us a sense of conscience. I truly believe that when education is delivered using the latest technologies in the right direction, it opens abundant opportunities and these opportunities are not bound by geography. Better educated people tend to live longer and have better lifestyles. This whole concept keeps me connected with the education sector.

Being the Principal of Global Institute of Technology, what is your philosophy of leadership?

"To develop students skills and build their knowledge by mentoring them whenever necessary"

I truly believe that each student is different and hence I don't treat them with the same predefined thought. As a Principal of GIT, my responsibility is to develop their strengths, interests, skills, abilities and knowledge by guiding them as and when required. I teach them to not get demotivated by failures but to learn from them by stretching and challenging themselves.
