Can you be a team-player in a single player world?
Advice from a Naval Officer and lessons from avengers
In our newsletter last week, we made a case against the individualist model of success. We spoke about the brilliant work of Dr. Anamika and invited you to shine a light on those in your orbit and make “individual success” a shared endeavor and a shared celebration.
When the President of India Calls You
The President of India Smt. Droupadi Murmu invited my mother, Dr. Anamika to speak at the Festival of Libraries 2023 to highlight iconic libraries from across the world in order to initiate a conversation on the modernization and digitization of important literary texts.
In today’s newsletter we would like to start by shining the light on some old NC employees who have gone on to do interesting things -

This is Aditi Nayak joining the founder’s office at Open Secret and working with a NC Patron (Abhilasha Sinha)
And this is Aditi Jain studying at ISB and connect with NC members
