The Captain Writing…..from London
I have landed in London today at 11am for a week off from work. As you all have known, we came in second after Ears of RAC and sharing the spot with Polish team, The Producer.
It was a fantastic event last night with lots of fun and energy. The fact that all the team are working towards one goal which is the customer, make us all the winner. Ears of RAC was great and from the first point of seeing their presentation I knew that they will be the greatest competitor for Team Infinity, which I believed thats what they are thinking too when they saw our presentation.
An then of course we won the The Team Captain Award of the Year. It reminds me that behind every great leader, there are always great team members. Thanks to Zubir the Great, Intan- Miss Data, Yati our Money Bag, Fara Miss O and Mike- the ears & voice of our customer. Off course not forgetting Elsie the Coach and Andy our sponsor and everyone back at CIMB Aviva.
One great thing that the team have learned from this is that for a project to be successful, you need to have full & passionate engagement from everyone. For a project to be sustainable, it is never possible by just pushing things down without getting the buy in, trust and respect. Probably Andy will agree with me if I am to say, that Customer Cup has changed some perspectives for us on how project should be managed or executed.
Mike will be updating the photos soon for all of you to enjoy ( right Mike?). I will keep on blogging and sharing what Intan & myself is doing (to be exact enjoying ) here in London & Paris until we’re back to Malaysia.
The 2nd place cup is with Andy, and all of you will have the first look at it next week. It will always remind CIMB Avivians that we have gone very far and there will be more to come. As the pioneer team, Team Infinity has set the benchmark right for the next coming team/s. In the spirit of ‘Malaysia Boleh’, we have surely ‘rocked’ Portugal down.
Yati, you have done us all proud. As I lap up every bit of detail (yes, there are people who do read in detail *wink*) in this blog, I can sense the anxiety, the stress, the lack of sleep before the presentation and then there’s the celebration and knowing how much you guys position have moved up over the short period must have been the sweetest topping one could ever ask for.
We now await anxiously for Infinity’s return and the arrival of the Cup
Have a great time in London.
We were talking about your achievement with Kevin during our Hari Raya Open House at Level 9. Andy, please bring back the Cup in one piece and stop drinking your ale out of it. hehehe..

Hi Yati
I am proud that you and the team made it. Congratulations and enjoy you trip in London and Paris. We should celebrate when you come back. My regards to Intan if she is with you where ever you are now.
