G) any hard worker (newbie even) eager to put his/her hand up for all kinds of collaborative exercises always ON at VP like Deep Dives, Stock Stories, prep for AGM Questions, prep for Management Q&As Some inherent traits (non-exhaustive):Ī) loves to take forward value-additive (data-driven) work of other contributorsī) from time to time loves to share his own original data-driven workĬ) is comfortable revealing the inner-workings of his/her mind by illustrating how he/she connects disparate data-points (comfortable exposing what one knows/doesn’t)ĭ) can be a senior investor/domain expert helping us read between the lines on the numbers show, or connect-the-dots in a not-so-apparent pictureĮ) can be a senior investor/domain expert helping us understand/dissect different business models/competitive position/advantages in the industryį) can be a senior investor helping/nurturing newbies (and seniors alike) on navigating between myriad investment choices available before us Proof of the Pudding - is always in the Eating!!Ī Collaborator is someone who essentially looks to work hard and contribute towards taking any story to its logical conclusion. They willingly put-up their hands for it, appreciating how it helps improving their own learning curve, as well as the larger Community’s.Īs mentioned before, just about anyone (all newbies inclusive) can put his/her hands up for this - but has to demonstrate that willingness by submitted work at VP. Invited participants (by virtue of new data-driven collaboration-capable work at VP, and/or exemplary work outside) are fully aware of the participation demands. Purpose is to give back to the community - in a more controlled/structured way through the Collaborators Corner - where no one has to spend time (continuously) to nurture/clean-up the discussion flow. This category could be used by the community as a barometer of desired higher-order contribution at VP. However, with huge membership now ( ~40K) and increasingly accelerating new registrations, it is difficult to control/incentivise quality discussion flow without diluting the essential democratic VP traditions (and/or imposing restrictions on newbies). We continue to believe every hard worker newbie is capable of upping the scale on continuous learning curve - provided he/she is continually exposed to the right, high-quality discussions VP has been known for. While everyone can see what is posted here, only Collaborators will be able to create and reply to topics/posts. The Collaborators Corner is a new category addition.
