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

“The pleasure of shaping raw talents into finished professionals”

Education is meant for a continuous learning process that is never ending and never exhausting. I always feel motivated to learn new and innovative things ongoing in the market. I put up my efforts to dissipate this knowledge to aspiring students as well. It gives me immense pleasure that I am able to enhance their life through this education process. Yesterday I saw them as young learners, but today I see them as global professionals and leaders. 

What is your philosophy of leadership?

“Working like peers and giving space to everyone”

I believe in the philosophy of equal opportunities and interactive reliability when it comes to teamwork. It is necessary to build a bond of trust and faith among individuals so that they are friendly in their behaviours and discuss openly their perspectives of working. A leader must create a space for everyone to put up their ideas and build a truly motivating environment that can fetch the best from any person.
