Shiksha ek khoj
Leading school and higher education through discovery, thinking and play
Play and Discovery with Himachal ed leaders
During this summer, we met college and school leaders across Shimla, Mandi, Palampur and Manali. We did deep dives into why we have schools, how best to nurture our students and how can play increase motivation.
Discovery
Shiksha Ek Khoj (education as discovery) is a leadership philosophy, dressed as an organization. To lead is to ask great questions and to search for better answers.
Thinking
Leadership is more than charisma, it is deep thinking. Leading is the challenge and joy of figuring out and resolving dilemmas that a google search won't answer.
Play
Play is necessary to imagine, to invent, to transcend time and to challenge existing norms. We don't play because we grow old; we grow old because we don't play.
