Which path to take, editor or reporter? It’s a choice many journalists have to make at some point. Quartz India Editor Diksha Madhok (@dikshamadhok) tells us how she went from exercising influence through individual stories on issues like women in Indian society to shaping whole newsrooms and publications.
We discuss growing up in India and not becoming an engineer (3:47), going to Columbia j-school (9:18), her time with Reuters (13:10), joining Quartz and becoming an editor (18:11), being an editor vs being a reporter (24:00), her story about why few highly educated Indian women stay in the workforce (32:58), another story on Indian housewives in the United States (35:57), and finish with the lightning round (41:54).
