There was an air of\u00a0excitement and anticipation on the 11th floor of Marathon Futurex-Mumbai on 25th November 2016. Desks were tidied, offices \u00a0spruced up, staff dressed smarter than usual!<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Big Boss, \u00a0\u00a0Prem Watsa, \u00a0Chairman, Founder & CEO @<\/span> Fairfax Financial Holdings<\/a>\u00a0was on a flying\u00a0visit to\u00a0Mumbai on work, but despite his busy schedule, he still had time to come and see us at TCIL. Needless to say, we were delighted! \"008\"And we showed it by welcoming him with a ‘tikka’ and a lamp—symbolic of the warmth and glow \u00a0the staff in the Mumbai office felt at seeing him.\u00a0\"016\"\u00a0After meeting the Execom and greeting the Heads in their cabins, \u00a0Prem, accompanied by our Chairman Madhavan, strolled out on to the main floor to meet the staff. \u00a0Affable and courteous as ever, he stopped by the desks,\u00a0chatting with as many staff as he could in the limited time.\u00a0Congenial and amiable, Prem put everyone at ease by talking to each individual with a genuine interest in the person. Before we knew it he was whisked away to another meeting, leaving behind him a feeling of graciousness \u00a0and cordiality. Is it any wonder the staff feel an affection for the man who is so aptly named “Prem”!<\/span>
