Arjun Shekhar
For his second novel, Arjun Shekhar has drawn heavily from his experiences in both the not-for-profit sector and the corporate world. He is a Co-founder and Chief Volunteer of Pravah, an NGO that builds leadership and social responsibility among youth by connecting their individual identity search to the society around them. He is also a partner in an Organizational Development firm called Vyaktitva that unfolds the true character of organizations and people.
His wife, who co-founded Pravah with him, and twelve-year-old daughter, too, have been major inspirations for his writing.
