I just marked my 7th year in Ateneo by becoming CORD’s Executive Director. This is actually the longest I’ve stayed in an organization and, surprisingly, I haven’t felt the 7-year itch yet. Okay, I will admit to getting tempted every now and then - but not enough to make me jump ship. Maybe it’s because I am fortunate enough to have a platform for what I came back to the country to do – use my skills to a difference.
As I look back at the past years, I am both heartened and humbled at how far we have come. Yet as our last planning sessions revealed, we still have so many dreams and there is still much that we’d like to do. Until there are people to develop, organizations to build, and knowledge to discover our destination is a moving target. So unlike my kids who will constantly ask, “are we there yet?” - I will simply enjoy the ride. Our journey has barely begun.
