I am really thankful for the team I have now.

In my handling of India, I have 5 people that I consider as my core team. The inner circle. My right hand men and woman. They’re there because of their level, actually. But more than that, I need them as my eyes and ears on what’s going on in India.

This time turns out to be a hard time for our team. One is having Bell’s palsy relapse. Half of his face is paralyzed and he couldn’t work for a long time. The other one is having his father-in-law diagnosed with cancer. And he has to be the one to take care of the situation.

So when I shared with them of my personal situation, that makes it 3 of us who need to step back for a little while. But what I really appreciate is that the remaining 3 members are stepping up to handle the situation. I appreciate their commitment to get our India team moving with our vision. We’re talking about a young 21-people team here in India. They constantly need guidance and direction.

It’s not everyday that you can have people like this working for you. In other companies, you will find people who tried to backstab you, overtake you, etc. Especially when you need to step back for one or other reasons.

But not my team. Everywhere I turn to, people offer help and support. I can not thank you enough.

In times like this I am grateful that God has put me where I am right now.
