Fright Night at the Atrium

Namy (minus her Batwoman mask and holding an enormous bag) and some friends spooked the Atrium on Halloween. The word got out that I was giving away packages of M&Ms as treats and my doorbell was busy. Although it is making inroads in India, Halloween is still not a big celebration here.

Visiting Rights

Namy and Jack visited Mr. Lucky and his new family who live at the Atrium. The Orams and their children, Jack and Ellen, are delighted with Lucky. The children have even made him his own condo with a big cardboard box, painted and furnished with strings and other playthings. He may not be the most beautiful cat in Chennai but he is, indeed, a lucky one.

Mr. Lucky has a new home and he is very happy. He has adopted a British family with two children and he has fish and chips at least once a week. The family lives at the Atrium and the kids have had their eyes on the frisky little kitten since they first saw him. Mum said yes, but father said no...until a weak moment. That was all it took. Mr. Lucky packed up his teddy bear, his litter box and was gone. (Jack and Namy have visiting rights, of course.)

Dinner in Ireland ith EMEA team: Fota Island Leadership

It is interesting to work on well-being, nutrition and work-life blanace in a place like Ireland. Most think of the beer here. We are taking advantage of the green rolling hills and countryside in the south, near Cork. Such a treat and privilege that my company sends me places like this. It shows a committment to value the underpinnings of health as related to how leadership functions. The organizers have us strategizing how to bring it back to the culture of the workplace.
