Trust, companionship and love

Also at the ceremony, Ms. Hoang Nguyen Thu Thao – CEO of Nguyen Hoang Group congratulated and expressed her trust in the new vice president: “Education philosophy of NHG is Humane and core values, which are: love; creativity; integrity; respect and discipline. In this moment, I would like to talk about the 3 pillars for the philosophy and core value, they are: trust, companionship and love.”

“Education has never been a job of one individual. In order to success, it is needed the cooperation, companion and participation of all people, all members of the university. In order to accompany, it is necessary to abandon ‘the privacy disrupting the common progress’ and welcome new people with their values. Companions are only sustainable when each person transforms himself into a person who serves others. Leadership by service, teaching/education in the spirit of service, learning through service, must become a culture in our daily life” – shared by Ms. Hoang Nguyen Thu Thao.
