today i woke up, better than yesterday, emotions foregone.
it ain’t easy leaving behind what has been more than a home to me than a work place–eTel.
5.5 years!
A place where i have built the most awesome keeper friendships–Digz and Cam and those that have left long before…
Met the greatest mentors and even life coaches at some point–Mayo, JJ and Oli…
And some of the most promising people i have had the privilege of grooming into leaders who just the same have taught back and developed me into the leader the i have come to be–28 coaches, my Argo shift and my Phoebe shift.
Moving forward from eTel was made extra uber super hard because of the hope that i would once again be able to reconnect and work with such outstanding people.
A great many thanks to 5.5 years!
Boss Mayo for always giving me that extra oomph i needed to max my potential. You have taught me leadership based on motivation, sincerity, dedication, ownership and developing others within eTel and beyond. You have seen me develop from start to finish, agent to shift lead. You know that I will always be happy I was in eTel and in Titan because of you. Remember when we cried buckets on that activity? You are the best and you have inspired me in sooo many ways in both personal an professional aspects. The greatest blessings beset the kindest people and I’m happy to see you exactly where you sooo deserve to be. Awabyu boss!
JJ–who made me have fun and savor every minute of leadership. You have empowered me through your trust and belief in my capacity. You have helped me shape people’s dreams
into reality. Thank you for the endless motivation, for the readiness to listen to every incessant rant fest. Now I’m raving remembering the good times with Argo and Sparta! You rock man! I’m marking your big day in my calendar. Wouldn’t miss it for the world.
Oli–your daily wacky antidotes were my UPper. Thank you for the mentoring sessions. Process and People. Thank you for teaching me sooo much in so short a time.
Mumsy Nata–for teaching me the value of integrity, hard work and sincere leadership. You will always be looked up to. I miss you to bits!
Kenny Wenny–for being a big bro in eTel.
Boss Jojo aka Direk–for listening to my long list of A… woes that one time i visited. It’s good to listen to people with great, sincere advice to give. It’s no wonder Makati rocks. The lead does too!
Digz–my bff, rant absorber, dream sharer and baguio craze partner in crime. The awesomeness doesn’t end here. Everyone knows how great a leader you are and how much potential you’ve got. Glad it’s finally out there.
Cam–my Alabang keeper! I’ve held on this long because of you.
Joeps–for listening and getting where i come from. I appreciate every effort. You are Alabang’s rock!
Kuya Bry–one of the best things that came of my Alabang stint was knowing such a wonderful life advice giver. I enjoyed the few good rockin’ bonding times while sipping on McDo coffee…heehee
Sants–my big bro in Alabang
My ARGO (Makati) Shift--You guys are the most awesome team of leaders and agents I have ever come across working with. Building and Leading a Team at its finest. The best days of my shift lead stint was spent with you guys!
My PHOEBE (Alabang) Shift–In my eyes, the best leaders and potential ones in Alabang are found in you guys! No BS! Keep on rocking!
Mama Rea–a person to look up to. An institution in eTel.
Kar–keep the faith!
My former sales coaches now leaders–Sheng, Donald, Mackie, Jase, Nessie, Jorky, Gboy, Paul, Papa Shaun, Aust, Aljo, Louis, Toni, Jane, Joyce, Rex, Meo, Met, Get, Yebs, Chino, Sahlie, Jackie, Sarah Joy, Lala, Carms, Mic, Edwin…hope i didn’t miss anyone!
My former Dione, Phoenix and Evo agents! Too many names to mention but you know who you are.
All my ex-programs: Samura I & II, Ninja, Nitro, Shop NBC, Cybertron, Excalibur and my last one–Titan.
Vina, Alvi and Lizette V. of the OD team! Rarities of eTel!
Chris Peabody and the 7 Habits Workshop that jumpstarted me as a leader.
BCH–the man behind the eTelecare success.
and not to forget Ate Pat of Makati and her just as cool sister in Alabang–the kindest keepers of eTel.
Moving forward but always looking back to where it all began.
