Teachers are the backbone of any country, the pillar upon which all aspirations are converted into reality. Thinker/philosopher you admire most. Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam — practical thinker and education visionary. Your favourite Nobel laureate. Mother Teresa, for her unwavering commitment to aiding those most in need. Perhaps the greatest humanitarian of the 20th century Your leadership style. I believe in collective decision making. All decisions should be owned by people executing them. This enables more enthusiastic implementation and faster decision making. The strength of a team is always greater than of an individual.
