I don't know that I have a teaching philosophy, but when I am in a leadership position or mentoring someone, I try and do what you are referring to by "feeding them what they want", I try and cater to their motivating factors. I think the worst thing a teacher or leader can do is to assume all the people you are teaching have the same motivating factors. Teach to the individual as much as possible, I guess that's my philosophy. They may want "soup" but if you can give each their own favorite type of soup, then everyone wins
