I have been picked to be the representative for R&D in our transition from company X to Y!
Personally this is a great honour (i.e. out of 50-60 engineers I was chosen as the representative – Through a voting scheme where anybody could be chosen). I hope I can handle it and not let people down…
Hey, congratulations! That sounds like a very good place to be in the new context, and the honor is well-deserved.
Thank-you
