Rolling Along with Business Projects

I’ve just capped an amazing week “off.” An interesting one, too.

I got involved at high levels with two Filipino organizations, viz. Philippine Business Council - Abu Dhabi and Filipino HR Practitioners Association.  Each one affords me really good opportunities to get active and advance multiple priorities, especially supporting the Filipino community, connecting with key people, building my network for “Taas Noo.” I had great conversations, e.g., at Agnes’ home on Friday evening.

I joined the American Chamber of Commerce in Abu Dhabi, and attended my first event last night:  the 4th of July celebration, and what a celebration, indeed.  I met Ambassador Grace there, after having met her just for the first time during BizTalk (23rd June).

I met with George at Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry. After all these months, I believe I’ve connected to the person who can advise me effectively with my business.

It looks like there could be some interesting business and social possibilities in working with BRS (Mersad, Mahmoud, and Farhang).  In Iran, no less.  The three seem to be fine gentlemen.

I’ve had good Skype calls with Tom, and things look good for finally getting my SJCM website up-and-running.

I met with Sree (Professional Speakers Association - Middle East) for lunch last Thursday, and this, too, presents some interesting business possibilities.

I even completed a rough draft of my Anime storyline (love and conflict, loss and renewal). Plus, I conceived my ‘poetic opera,’ probably on Mozart’s “Requiem.”
