Dear Colleagues
The management and I would like to thank you all for your continued resilience in this
challenging new world that we have found ourselves in. While Covid-19 has not yet been
eradicated, life has slowly started to return back to normal, travel has become a little easier
and the feeling of cabin fever (which I must admit I have had as well) can now ease. We must
continue to be vigilant and I urge you all to get the booster shot, it is only going to help you
overcome the virus in the unfortunate event you being exposed to it.
The first half of the year has started slow but we are cautiously optimistic that the second
half of the year is going to be much better. All the signs are there to show that the industry
is recovering from the many years of decline, albeit slowly. There are many challenges for
us, biggest being a threat to our market share with quite a few new players entering the
market. We are in advance stages of finalizing some capital expenditures to improve our
current services and also to add newer services to our portfolio. These will come to fruition
over the next 6-12 months. I believe all the good work we have done, as a team, over the
past many years will keep us in a good position with customers and any impact new
competition will have on us should be marginal. The only way forward is to do the job better
than the competition. We always welcome new ideas and I welcome you all to put in some
thoughts about how we can be do your particular areas of expertise in a superior manner.
Continuous improvement is the only way forward. This will enable us to grab as much future
business as possible.
As usual, I will end with an inspirational quote, this time from one of the great minds that
has ever lived, Stephen Hawking – “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change”. Let’s not
be afraid of change, more often than not it brings about positive outcomes.

1. Please tell us about yourself.
I am Satish Sampangi; I Graduated in Diploma of Mechanical Engineering from Bangalore. I started
my carrier since 1998 to 2012 in (HAL) Hindustan Aeronautic limited, as Aircraft engine assembly
technician. Then, I have joined MTQ on 2012 as a fitting Forman, MTQ given a new life for my carrier.
2. What you enjoy most about your job here in MTQ?
I enjoy every moment in MTQ and mostly I love my job because everyone shares the same vision and is
dedication to the mission.
3. Did you face any challenges when you started working at MTQ?
Initially I faced challenges like adjusting to the learning curve; Figuring out how to be part of a new
work culture can at times be frustrating and it took me time to gain the trust of co-workers to get
them on board with my ideas.
4. What motivates you to wake up and go to work?
Recognized for a job well done and believing in the work I do motivates me to get out of bed in the
morning. I like knowing that I'm appreciated, because I give every job my all, and I also like knowing
that the work I'm doing is producing results that matter to people everywhere.
5. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
I am very interested in this field. In 10 years, I hope to level up and be in higher position I really hope to be
well on my way to achieving that position. I have always prioritized commitment to my job collaboration and
leadership. I certainly expect and hope to work with this company in another 10 years.
6. What is the best career lesson you have learned so far?
Never stop learning. Always maintain work and life balance. Be a team player. Live and let live.
7. What kind of hobbies and interest do you have outside work?
Spending time with my family & friends, watching movies & sports & Reading books, and social
service.
8. Do you have any regrets in life? & why?
I regret that I missed my part of life spending most beautiful time with my wife & kids.
We cannot always change what has happened to us, but we can change how we react and how we
live in the future.
9. What is something you are planning on doing in the next year that you have never done?
I Plan to get my wife and kids in next year which I never done in past years, for the woman who
stands behind my success and scarifying her life journey without me.
10. What is your favorite mantra in life?
Love the life you have, live and let live, happiness is a choice, not a condition. Be happy.”
