FAREWELL TO OUR MANAGING DIRECTOR
A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” – John C Maxwell
Like a true leader, you gave us confidence than creating fear, corrected mistakes than fixing blame and enabled us with both reasoning and seasoning to the work that we are all involved in.
You showed us the path, and you enriched us with the capacity to translate vision into reality.
It’s hard to forget a great leader like you. A leader who is a good teacher and a caring mother to all. You are leaving this Corporation, but your legacy will remain here forever.
FAREWELL TO OUR IRON LADY
Thank you Ma’am, for all the love, care, guidance, and support that you have showered each and everyone of us with.
May peace, health, and happiness be with you in every walk of your life.
We wish you all the best for your future endeavours as a Special Officer-Rebuild Kerala Development Program.
