The sun was setting down in Manhattan after another long day in office. Last week had been of high volatility on the Street and threatened to spoil the weekend planned with the kids. Even today, I had to go through several alterations with the team to make them see, the importance of doing the right thing when everyone around you is not. This time of crisis has exposed the real flesh men have been made of and only the fittest have survived the rigor. Our division had come under the scrutiny as well, generating the highest revenue for the firm for five continuous years. It was only because of the ethical practices and the sheer dedication of the my team that we have been able to stand above all in these times of turmoil. Being the desk head had been as much fun as much a challenge. But what is life without its set of mountains to climb and hurdles to cross? That is what keeps one motivated and hungry for more.
