Something seriously BIG happened to my company... On Thursday, we were informed that our Global CEO was here and had something to announce to us. I didn't make it to the boardroom on time, the door was already closed so i skipped the session. Shortly after the meeting was over, we received news that our Chief Executive had resigned! This is a real shock to us. Why would someone who was given a prestigious title of "Hotelier of the Year" and about to join the board in July leave so suddenly? What's more, he told us during the recent townhall meeting that he will remain in Singapore with us after he joined the board! It turned out that the decision was made after an internal review of the academic qualifications he had previously submitted to the company. This is so unbelievable and Ouch! It must have hurt him big time esp. when he fell so suddenly from his seat up there. On Friday, our TGIF session broke record high... this was the first time I've met the CEO in person. He explained to all that this decision is necessary, blah blah blah... and introduced the acting Chief Executive. On Saturday, the news appeared on the papers, a half-page reports on the first page of Home! Wow!
