Tomorrow's Leaders

I have had a lucky life. My parents funded my education. They catered to all my needs. It wasnt until I graduated that I had to even think of getting a job. Luck played its part again when I got my first job. Almost 9 years after, I am still at the same job. From the role of an ASP developer to a Program Manager. I did good and I am successful. The job taught me the meaning of hard work, multitasking, team work, building relationships and serving customers.

I write this post at my local Starbucks tonight sipping on my specially brewed “Thanks Giving” coffee. I watch the young men and women behind the counter serving customers, working as a team, with a smile on their faces, building relationships, working hard to fund their education and lead their own lives. The satisfaction on their faces when they sit down at the end of a tough day with their loved ones for a meal that they’ve earned, says it all. It’s all worth it.

I am witnessing the making of tomorrow’s leaders.
