(1) Thread. When writing my book "Lady Doctors" about India's first women doctors, people often ask me who my favourite doctor is. Rukhmabai had the hardest road, but I have a soft spot for Haimabati Sen, pictured here. Let me explain why.

Another common question I’m answering working with scaling tech companies is… Q. What’s the worst leadership advice you’ve heard? A. By far the worst is “Hire great people and get out of their way”. Let me explain… 🧵 (1/32)

A friend just told me there are approx 4000+ Series A startups in India! We don’t have that many awesome folks for Tech, Product, Design, Growth, Sales, Customer Service and other roles. Money is available. Talent Crunch is real. Good Talent!

Being a solo founder is really, really, really tough but it’s still better than picking the wrong cofounder – at New York, USA

It’s not about educated vs. uneducated. It’s about “likes to read” vs. “doesn’t like to read” —@naval Schools teach how to read, but fail to foster a *love* for reading. A better approach👇🏽 teapawt.org/anafabrega11/status/12…
Let kids read freely and wildly Let them try books and abandon them Let them skim through books and dive deep into what interests them Poems. Comic books. Nonfiction. Magazines. Cookbooks. The same book over and over *Choice* is the secret recipe to foster a love of reading

Delhi editors have been concerned about rights of journalists & freedom of expression in #Afghanistan. In #Kashmir barring reporters from doing their jobs or snapping of communication channels isn't a violation of journalistic rights for them.

Proudly showing-off @PickleYolkBooks’ newest baby, the gorgeous, soul-stirring ‘Aai and I’, written by the fabulous Mamta Nainy and illustrated by the equally brilliant Sanket Pethkar. This is Aai and I’s exciting press moment.

ICYMI, Byju's K3 app, based on Disney characters, was supposed to help the edtech giant break into a new segment. For Disney, too, it was the first global edtech foray. Why it didn't work out & what it led to is @OBanerji's super insightful story today the-ken.com/story/byjus-disn…

I have taught Mahashweta Devi's "Draupadi" more times than I can remember. Such a rich and layered text. And the same goes for Bama and Sukrtharani's work which I have both taught and co-translated. What is it with DU?
