Dear Reader,
With all that has been going on in India, this is a challenging time. The second wave of coronavirus has hit the country hard, to say the least. Millions of families are directly affected by this wave, but it is safe to say the virus has taken a toll on each and every one of us. In addition to claiming lives, coronavirus has also impacted jobs and mental health.
It is indeed a somber era – but it is also the time to step forward and work together as a community. Over the next few weeks, we will be launching initiatives to help the community and those hit by the virus.
The Strategy Story was founded on the ethos of sharing deep insights about the business world, opening up a new window to inspire students, executives, and managers around the globe. With your support, we are proud to say that today, The Strategy Story is not just a content platform. It is a vibrant community where we learn from each other every day.
At our core, we are a family of keen learners, and it goes without saying that it includes you too, dear reader. In the fight against this cruel virus, we want you to know that you are not alone. We are in this together.
Not to forget, one of the worst sentiments a human can feel during a time like this is helplessness. We strongly believe that together, we can make a difference. In keeping with this, we urge you to stay indoors and follow all precautions diligently. Something as simple as this might just save a life.
Furthermore, we would like to share information about verified resources in India to help you and your local community, in case you find yourself in need of them. Please exercise discretion before making payments for any resource. Some useful resources:
- Twitter Search for COVID
- Pan India Dashboard by Sprinklr (Please verify the links)
- List of beds and oxygen cylinders (verified by users)
- Verified mental health helplines
Considering the pressure Indian resources (especially oxygen demand) are facing, we also urge you to donate, if possible, to any Covid Related fundraiser. We highly recommend Ketto or Give India.
We could not be more grateful for your love and support so far and hope to emerge out of this pandemic as a stronger, more resilient community.
Sincerely,
Team The Strategy Story
