What are the key factors that keep you connected with the education sector?
“Nobility of the profession and the education sector”
The foremost reason to be connected to the education sector is to work for the overall development of the students. It also gives me an opportunity to stay connected and learn about the latest developments and trends in technology. Also, The respect which a student has for a teacher is what has made me connected with education for such a long time. I draw satisfaction from my job when I see my students getting employed and generating employment for others as well.
What is your philosophy of leadership?
“Empowering and drawing the team together”
A leader is one who is strategic, inspiring and a motivational individual. A leader is one who inspires teamwork in others and pushes each member in his team to excel in their work and achieve the target as planned. A leader is one who supports his or her subordinates and maintains the right balance within the organization among various departments such as the management, staff and the students. A leader is also one who leads by setting an example for others, not just gives orders. He/She is the one who lays out a plan of action for the team and ensures the participation of each and every individual including himself to complete a task.
What do you think your roles and responsibilities to the students are?
“Enhancing student experience and skills”
The key responsibility I have, being the HOD, is to prepare a route or a path that takes the students towards a visionary life and success. My most important role is to provide a creative and healthy environment for the faculty and students in particular so that they can enhance their knowledge and improve their skills. Motivating the students for their research work and innovation is what I believe is my role and responsibility which eventually would lead to the growth of the organization and the students above all.

Any suggestions you would like to give to the current youth?
“Passion, Determination and Dedication”
I would like to say the world is changing very rapidly and the youngsters need a mixture of skills to succeed. Though academics are essential, it is not sufficient for a productive career. People need to develop skills such as flexibility and teamwork for achieving success in their work as well as individual life. The youth should learn from their mistakes and keep focussing on their passion. I am pretty sure that a passionate individual can achieve anything in life. No goal is out of reach for these individuals.
