The book “Lead, Don’t Manage Your People” was formally launched on late afternoon of October 10 -11, 2008 at the Top Shelf in Fully Booked, Bonifacio High Street in Manila.
Its author Jim Black happens to be a former boss of my former colleague, Yolly. It was also the first time for Yolly and me to meet again after she left the company I presently work with.
Yolly introduced me to Jim and I was one of the few who were able to personally had a tête-à-tête with him. Jim already went back to the U.S. and hopefully he’ll hit the town again by February next year.
In the meantime, here’s sharing Yolly’s email message right after the book launch:
Subject: Thank you!!
Dear all:
Thank you so much for participating to Jim’s book launch yesterday.
I would like to recognize the hard work of Rhea, Nimfa and Team - for making the 2-day book launch happen — and coffee was excellent !!
Of course to Lia - gee…your cream puffs were delicious…..expect an order from me…..(I’m sure the rest will place their order too) and the full support you’ve also given to Jim.
Denice and Regin (and to your brother) - thanks for being there!!!
I have attached some pix for souvenir.
See you again sometime and I had a great time with you all!!
Best regards,
Yolly
