How does Fethullah Gulen manage to oversee the network of institutions in the movement
How does Mr. Gulen manage to oversee a network of schools, media companies and other for-profit or non-profit organizations that are run based on his teachings?
First of all, the word “oversee” means, “supervising (a person or work), especially in official capacity”. Therefore, by definition, it is not possible for Mr. Gulen, a man residing in rural Pennsylvania, to “oversee” partially or fully a network of institutions or organizations, the founding of which have been inspired by Mr. Gulen’s thoughts, and which now spans across more than hundred countries. As such, it would be misleading to say or imply that “Gulen oversees a network of schools, media companies and other for-profit or non-profit organizations.”
