It's over! Phew ...

... and I'm talking about the interaction lunch I had with my MD and fellow 2003-returning MAS scholars. In anticipation of a mind-blowing intellectual convenance, I spent half the morning discussing with my bosses on handling possible political questions that he might lambast on me, queries on my department's major projects and outstanding issues, in particular. Thank God, MD appeared to be an extremely easy-going person and an avid listener. Over lunch at the MAS Penthouse, the 13 of us exchanged views on how to improve the corporate environment in the organization and how long we foresaw as the period in which we could fully leverage off our core competencies. The lunch turned out very well, and it was an overall pleasant experience.
