The conference, dubbed “Building a League of Heroes for 2018” (inspired by the recent comic superhero blockbuster Justice League) touched on emphasizing the company’s vision and mission to help Filipinos better their lives through international education opportunities, reminding the WORLDCONNECT that not only are they an integral part of its network, they must also feel a sense of responsibility and fulfillment as they play an important role in changing someone’s future for the better.
As the company reflects on its tenth year in the business, the vice-president, Alfredo Ubaña, touched on how 2018 was looking for WORLDCONNECT in his welcome remarks.
“Better, of course! The coming year will definitely bring a new set of challenges, and we shall be ready for it. We shall wear our superhero capes and dig deep inside of ourselves for our respective superpowers. When facing difficulties, we shall not relent in our efforts. This is the time for heroes to come to the fore and rise up to the challenge – again.”
