Curiosity, published in pencil.

The Unpolished Dispatch is a living notebook about economics and management. Rather than focusing on current affairs and events, it presents reflections, notes, references, articles, essays and manuals which explore the dismal science and the art of getting things done.

It’s written for those who studied economics and business and realised that the syllabus was only a starting point. With professional experience comes a second set of eyes: concepts that felt abstract become operational, and everyday decisions raise better questions than any exam ever did. This is a place to return to first principles with more context, more curiosity, and fewer illusions.

It’s an evolving library for people who like to tinker, compare perspectives, and revisit good material over time. Not for readers chasing headlines, but for the restless kind of reader who wants to understand why a method exists, what assumptions it carries, and which school of thought would argue differently. In that sense, it’s a companion for the Economist and the Manager, the ones who treat their craft as an intellectual pursuit, not just a job.

If something sparks a thought or deserves a correction, send a nudge: I update often.
