Bio
Crisela Magpayo-Cervantes
Arvin or Boss A as we fondly call him was an extremely supportive manager. He knew when to provide input but also entrusted me to make important decisions regarding work on our Client’s business. Some of my best work with the team in Ogilvy Manila happened under his supervision including ground breaking work for Motorola and Gillette. He is a leader that empowers his team to do their best work.

I work with Arvin while I was ECD of Ogilvy Manila. Arvind was leading a group. I was very new to the Philippines and kinda overzealous. I remember Arvin being very patient and supportive with me. Not only that, he mobilise his whole team to get behind our ideas. Through working with Arvin I found Arvin to be a Stand-up guy and an overall honest & decent human being. Somebody that you would want to be at your corner. When things sometimes didn’t go as plan, Arvin wasn’t the type of person that point fingers. He was solution conscious and not problem conscious. Never wanting to be at the centre of of the attention, Arvin was always happy to share success and let his teams shine.
