I joined the workforce in 1991. The decades after economic reform took salaries, opportunities and markets to unbelievable levels. My message to the post 2000 gen: don't look for revdis in the budget. Look for what induces growth. Being rich is good #saynotosoclalism #Budget2023

With Kuldeep and Keshav the two
@IndiGo6E
staffers in Hyderabad who helped me find my bag 🙏🏽 Kuldeep overstayed his shift to help me despite others just passing the buck. Exemplary staff like them are what keep customers from losing their mind at the airline. God bless you both🙏🏽

When someone tells me they're looking for a Strategy role, all I hear is "I want an unaccountable high-paying job where I can do high-level thinking without ever getting my hands dirty with day-to-day affairs.. and I probably went to business school"

Hence returning the favor and sharing that this last month I allowed myself 5 hours of dance class to be able to perform at the annual performance that my dance school organizes. I had not attended class in 11 months, yet my teacher persuaded me to take up this challenge & do it.

1/n As founders paying attention to our mental health is a much talked about but poorly executed item. Inspiration to invest in my mental health comes to me when I see others like me doing so. Hence sharing this...

All conference organizers take note. No more can you use the excuse of having reached out to a "few" who couldn't make it! There's a massive list. And this doesn't even cover ALL! 🚀🚀

Why weren't our Children's Days celebrated like this?! I would have loved hot buttered popcorn and snuggling up to watch a movie, instead of multiple speeches on Jawaharlal Nehru & blah blah🥲 Context: The Earth School is my 10yr old's Montessori school in Bangalore #AltEdRocks

WW-2 was a forcing function, where sheer necessity led to women joining the workforce. As a global order we've made much progress since then. Yet a long way to go. Women are the single biggest determinant of household wealth.
@mysaltapp
is poised to capture this inevitability!

A 700-year old "husband market" in Bihar! There's a bride market too. Would have been the OG Bumble if only the bride was allowed to choose. Unfortunately patriarchy prevails. Else it'd be a cool extension of the swayamvars of ancient India!

You Can Buy a Husband at India’s 700-Year-Old Groom Market
For over 700 years, the Indian state of Bihar has been hosting a unique groom market where women and their families come to shop for husbands. Every year, thousands of men gather under the Pipal trees
