the information.
After working in various accounting roles
while earning his tertiary and professional
qualifications, Chacko worked his way up
through the ranks at some of the country’s
best known manufacturing companies
including BlueScope Global Building,

“My roles and responsibilities grew only
as the trust itself grew,” he recounts. “It is
about building trust over a long period.”
ONE PIECE

intelligence and

each other.”
