Activities or Where to Bring Visiting Foreign Executive

If you were in my place, would you meet your new VP from headquarters in Europe on a HOLIDAY to tour him around Manila?

Our new VP is arriving Oct 31 e holiday yun e! I'm thinking if I should volunteer to tour him around pero honestly tinatamad ako. If it were my boss baka ako pa sumundo sa airport hahaha

But I'm thinking I need this for my.career hahaha just kidding. Pero if it were me kasi I'd appreciate it if my people would have done that for me. It's his first time in the Philippines kasi.

If he heads your business unit, then maybe yes.

Pero if hindi naman, then maybe no.

I don't really know if it will. I just want to make a good impression on our VP. I'm actually not happy because I like our former VP better (who endorsed my recent promotion)

Also, medyo naawa ako. It's his first time in the Philippines kasi.

Yes. He is the boss of my boss and he is based at our HQ in Europe. Newly promoted (effective November 1).

I'm not the reason why he is going here since I'm the only person under him that is based in Manila (was supposed to be transferred to HQ in 2016). He is working with another department pero ako lang kasi kakilala niya sa Manila hahaha

Then that would be a BIG yes!

Pero you can tour him once lang, no need for follow-up tours.

If i were the boss, i would be extremely pleased that someone took the effort to show me around on a holiday.

Once is enough, i guess?

It's our new VP's first time to visit the Philippines. I am planning to take him around on November 1, 4 and 5. Any suggestions on where to take him?

I hate driving so preferably Makati or BGC. I'm thinking of taking him to Tagaytay on a Sunday but isn't it traffic?

Also, what else to do after office? Maybe drinks? Hassle lang because I am alone on this

I'm his only staff based here in Manila (he is here to work with another department)

He wants to see old churches daw.

Should be just day tour:

1. Tagaytay
2. Pagsanjan shooting the rapids
3. Villa Escudero or Hidden Valley
4. Intramuros
5. Corregidor Tour

Old churches in Cavite or in Pampanga.....or in MM Bamboo Organ LPC, Manila Cathedral, San Agustin, San Sebastian.... marami....

German right? Don't bring him to the beach,- automatic maghuhubad iyan.... hehehe

I was thinking Makati, BGC, Tagaytay, or your not so favorite mall, SM MoA.😆

But sometimes, foreigners want more of a cultural tour. Fort Santiago, Rizal Park. Maybe you could ask your VP what this new guy likes.

Hope somebody could come up with better suggestions.
