Editorial
The FIFA world cup fever had gripped one and all across the globe, but Brazil's exit had left millions of
soccer aficionados and fans terribly heartbroken. While sports analysts all over the world are discussing
this indelible case study, I recall a beautiful quote by Michael Jordan, “Talent wins games, but teamwork
and intelligence wins championships.” So let's leverage the spirit of team working in achieving our
collective goals and emerge as champions. In the month of June 2014, we witnessed a wonderful
example of "team working makes champions" at BL, and that was the highest ever despatch from IP,
Silvassa. Kudos to the team for this achievement!
As promised, we bring you glimpses of the World Environment Day programs held across units and
establishments, in this issue. BLOOM congratulates all the employees who were promoted recently, and
welcomes all the Executive Trainees and new joinees to Balmer Lawrie.
