https://padlet.com/aristotlecastro/ThankUNichie Messages for Nichie as she takes on a new role in Corp en-us 2021-10-21 09:55:27 UTC 2025-12-07 11:26:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/1416096964/a1e18c0f609b34636ed28ecf49d26f04/Nichie_avatar.jpg aristotlecastro https://padlet.com/aristotlecastro/ThankUNichie/wish/2245674247 Thank you so much for everything that you have done to SMC and most especially in APAC Finance. We will miss you a lot and I'm sure you will be as loved in Corp as much as we do in APAC. Spread your wings, fly, and soar in Redmond! 

It has always been a positive energy to be with you. Thank you for always selflessly extending your help to all of us in AHQ. As for me, you have been very critical in enabling me to settle in the role especially in running our AHQ ROBs, Outlook, CFO and as far as complexities such as allocation, and budgeting. Beyond this, thank you for the gift of friendship. Work was much enjoyable including the tough times because you are always there to support and cheer up. I will deeply miss you in APAC, and Corp is just so lucky to have you in their team.

All the best, Nichie!

XOXO

It was absolute pleasure having you join the NZ Team and getting to know you more...I'm just sorry it wasn't for longer!  Come back to visit us in NZ soon!

You have been a huge part of APAC Finance for many years, and we will definitely miss your bubbly, infectious personality in the Team. You have a relentless dedication to do your best, regardless of the role you are currently in. 

Best of luck with the move to the US, I look forward to finding some good Thai restaurants when I get up there next.

Remember....once Team Kiwi, always Team Kiwi!!!!

I wish you all the best, Nicha.

It's hard to believe you're going to the U.S. soon. I'm still in denial not thinking that your departure is coming close. I will miss seeing you in the office, working with you, having hotpot together and talking endlessly about our life in Singapore. I'm so happy about for you with the new chapter in the US and long for the day we can meet again!

You are one of the dying breed of Microsoft finance controllers that had been baptised by the quarterly forecast cycle of death with country level plancast input with 20+ pricing levels and 20+ RSDs. And you have always done this with a smile on your face.
My wife will miss you too as she always knew from Facebook that I am safe and sound when we go out for our hotpot dinners :D.
Jokes aside, it's often said that we will only know what we have until it's gone. But with you Nicha, we will definitely miss your tenacity, positive energy and the togetherness that you bring to the team.
All the best and safe travels.

Thank you for making me a better manager and for always keeping the energy up no matter how hard things were.

 I've been only working with you for 4 months, but I learned a lot from you. I was really impressed by your work and professionalism. Especially, your positive attitude and patience when there are a lot of pressures/stress/mistakes. I'm sure the positive impact will be greater & wider if you take on the new "mothership" role in the corp. Thank you so much for your guidance and help in lending Kesava during my tough onboarding period. I won't survive without your help!! 

All the best Nicha!!
