Jyoce joined us 8 months back . In our marketing group .
A strong willed, headstrong & no nonsense girl.. And very quickly she established herself as someone who can get the work done – come what may ! And she was not afraid of drawing on the power of authority from me .
Yes! She build up a tough image for herself and could throw her weight around ! And I guess she enjoys it too !!
And we have a very seasoned old time veteran business manager in our office as well .
And he runs a tight ship ! A straight talking, tough speaking aggressive manager who is well respected by all and equally feared by many. A review session call from him could make many a braveheart shudder !
Yes! With 21 years of service under his belt, and an abundant & unchallenged knowledge of every aspect of our business, Narang was a force to be reckoned with . And preferably at a safe distance to be maintained too !!
Last week, preparations for the country review were in full swing . Jyoce along with the marketing & product managers were called in by Narang for the brainstorm and planning session . And as usual, people were on the edge .
At lunch , while every one gathered around the table I noticed Jyoce’s absence and enquired .
‘ Still with Narang !’ the reply sounded quite ominous raising many anxious looks !
Looking up, I asked ‘ You left her all alone with Narang in 6D ? “
Some silence .
And then the cocky young rookie from B-school pipped in ..
“ Oh Gawd !! So Narang is left all alone with Joyce !!??? “
And a hearty laughter thereafter retriggered our appetite !!
