She serves on many national and international boards and accreditation teams, and works with governments around the world to promote educational collaborations.
Anu views schools as structures of joy, and her life commitment has been to put the student at the center of any classroom pedagogy. She believes that one of the assured criteria for an effective pedagogy is a happy school, which is why she strives to shape supportive, inclusive organizational cultures.
She believes that the art of running a successful school rests not just in finding the right people, but in ensuring that everyone is intrinsically motivated to grow together. This requires heart-led leadership skills, the ability to listen, understanding what motivates people, and providing the necessary training and infrastructural support.
Via TAISI (The Association of International Schools of India), she has built a professional-development community with schools across India. Her strength and passion have always been to take on projects and challenges that need to be worked on — and to help breathe new life into them.
