MR. AND MISS BPO 2017 CANDIDATES PRESENTED TO THE PRESS
By Noli A. Berioso
The official candidates for the inaugural Mr. and Miss BPO 2017 were officially presented to the members of the media last October 24 at the Roofdeck of I’M Hotel along Makati Ave., corner Kalayaan in Makati City.
The pageant is expected to be an exciting search with a fresh and innovative approach. It will showcase the men and women behind one of the most progressive industries in the country today – Business Process Outsourcing or what is commonly called BPO or contact center.
The
first contact center was established in the country in 1992. After almost 2
decades, the country was declared the world’s BPO capital. And last year, it
was projected to have generated 1.3 million new jobs with a 17% annual growth.
Without a doubt, the Philippines is the standard country in the world for the
BPO enterprise.
With all these breakthroughs, the search for the perfect BPO Ambassadors is
equally exciting. The time has come to put the spotlight to the new breed of
young men and women who can be rightfully called “mga bagong bayani ng bayan”.
The candidates will embark to a series of activities from photo shoots, seminars, preliminary events and the pre-pageant scheduled on November 11 and 12 also at I’M Hotel. The first Mr. &Ms. BPO aims to promote excellence, leadership and camaraderie in the workplace. It will also empower the candidates to impart the right attitude at work and the drive to help in nation building. Facilitating the development of the candidates in a holistic approach is a formidable team composed of mentors for fitness and well-being, communication skills, emotional intelligence acumen and modeling just to name a few.
Coronation night is on November 21 at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
