CASE STUDY 1: 

IVY LEAGUE : CASE STUDY : COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY

( AND HOW WE KEEP PRODUCING LEADERS POST THEIR ADMISSION AT AN IVY LEAGUE )

YOWANA WAS STUDYING AT GROTON HIGH SCHOOL IN MASS, ONE OF THE TOP HIGH SCHOOLS OF THE COUNTRY. GREAT GPA, WANTED TO BE IN COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY, STUDYING SOCIAL BUSINESS AND JOURNALISM / COMMUNICATION. AT PROJECT STARFISH HIS INTERNSHIP WAS ALL ABOUT COMMUNICATION, BUILDING MARKETING MATERIALS AND EXPLAINING A VERY NEW CONCEPT OF SOCIAL EMPLOYMENT TO TOP BUSINESSES, NON PROFITS AND BUSINESS MAGNATES. COMMUNICATING A DIFFICULT CONCEPT TO HUNDREDS OF BUSINESSES, RADIO STATIONS, OUTREACH SCHOOLS AND ATTENDING EVENTS ETC. EXACTLY WHAT HE WOULD BE DOING AS A COMMUNICATION EXPERT OR JOURNALIST! ( THATS WHAT WE CALL … ALIGNMENT WITH GOALS, IVY LEAGUE FIELD OF STUDY AND INTERNSHIP )

YOWANA INVESTED A LITTLE TIME EVERYDAY TO ACT LIKE A JOURNALIST / COMMUNICATION EXPERT AS PART OF HIS INTERNSHIP WHICH HAD A SPECIFIC AGENDA. HE WENT TO ENTREPRENEURIAL EVENTS SPREADING AND EVANGELIZING A CONCEPT THAT WAS SO NEW, THAT IT CAUGHT THE ATTENTION OF BILLIONAIRE DESH DESHPANDE.  

( PICTURE OF BILLIONAIRE INVESTOR LISTENING TO OUR  ENTIRE PITCH; YOWANA IS THE ONE IN THE GREEN T-SHIRT )

YOWANA’S RECOMMENDATION WAS GLOWING; BECAUSE OF HIS INTERNSHIP, HIS ALIGNMENT WITH HIS GOALS, AND WHAT HE WANTS TO DO AT THE IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS, THATS EXACTLY WHAT THE IVY LEAGUES WANT I.E. LEADERS. HE WENT ON TO STUDY ON A SCHOLARSHIP. OUR WORK DOESN’T END. HE LEADS SEVERAL FRATERNITIES AND ALSO INTERNS AT THE NEW YORK CITY MAYORS OFFICE. COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY AND THE NYC MAYORS OFFICE ALSO CONTACTED US TO BE SURE OF THE LEGITIMACY OF YOWANA’S WORK. GUESS WHAT? THEY WERE VERY AMAZED AT THE CLARITY OF WORK AND PURPOSE FROM THE PROOF GENERATED VIA HIS INTERNSHIP! NEED WE SAY MORE? YOWANA STILL CONTINUES TO LEAD. THAT’S EXACTLY OUR INTENT.
