Dear Daniel
Thank you for sending the announcement. It's a great encouragement for me to be acknowledged by everyone on the team. I also feel that I joined a truly global organization.
My first day at WCS is about finish. It's premature to say that I've gotten used to the new environment, but my colleagues are very supportive. I'm excited to be part of this great team.
Hopefully, I'll have an opportunity to talk to you soon.
Regards
Lisa

Dear Lisa
It's nice to hear that your colleagues are supportive. With the positive attitude you showed us during the recruiting process, you'll get used to the new job in no time.
Actually, we're planning an induction seminar next month, probably either on Tue 9 or Wed 10, in the late afternoon Tokyo time. I look forward to talking to you then.
Best of luck
Daniel
