Writing Fellowship

When was the last time you wrote a long-form essay or a memo or a short story?

Most of us never seem to have the bandwidth. There is work to be done, assignments to be completed, Tweets to be shared and WhatsApp forwards to deal with. Despite the myriad commitments, we need to carve out time to write consistently. It is an essential life skill.

No one is born a great writer. We become better with deliberate practice, a special type of practice that is both purposeful and systematic. While regular practice might include mindless repetitions, deliberate practice requires focused attention and is conducted with the specific goal of improving performance. In the Network Capital Writing Fellowship, you will engage in deliberate practice as a community.

Starts November 13, 2021, join in!

Kiran Gandhi: Harvard MBA Turned Musician and Activist

Kiran’s career choice is not one-off. We are witnessing a large number of ambitious, highly accomplished professionals who are venturing into the passion economy, creating a niche and scaling it step by step. This broadening of the professional landscape creates new avenues for young professionals to apply their skills and curiosities. Their futures are not pre-ordained, they don’t feel obliged to follow a script for their careers and their lives. It is the uncharted exploration of new economic and social possibilities that provide hope for everyone.

The Korean Boy Band That Build a Multi-Billion Empire

From the beginning BTS lyrics focused on being authentic, relatable and empathetic. Self-care, love, personal growth are recurring themes in their music. They have never tried to project a larger than life image. Each member of BTS has cried on camera, and talked openly about the challenges in their lives.
