THE C CIRCLE

Mr. Ernesto Lee, President of Agri-Bio Phils. and I-Elev8 Contact Solutions is one person that I truly respect. I can still remember the day that I first met him. The date was August 26, 2006 when I applied as trainer in one of his companies - Leettrafe, Inc. (Phils.). I was really nervous then because it was my first time to be interviewed by a Chinese looking executive.

I came to his office 30 minutes earlier (my interview time was set at 4:00PM). I was dressed in semi-formal and have practiced well the possible questions I think I will be asked about during the interview.

His secretary walked me to his office. I was greeted by him and asked me to take my seat. He browsed my CV and started to ask me questions. After about 15 minutes, he said “Okay…You’re hired. You can start tomorrow.” I felt extreme happiness not only because I got the job but I got the job that I enjoy doing the most - trainings!

Sometime February 2007, in one of our meetings, he asked me to start a call center. I was stunned. I told myself, how could somebody this successful trust me a lot? That day brought me into the realization that I have to live up to his expectations and that I have to do everything I could not to fail him.

Currently, I’m still under his wings and enjoying working for him. The stress and pressure brought about in running a call center is nothing as compared to knowing that I am working for somebody I truly respect, a very down to earth person, my boss, my mentor - Ernesto Lee.
