What does it take to be a man’s man? MEGA Man’s September issue examines this question through the stories of Marco Gumabao, who has become one of the most sought-after leading men in the country today. In this issue, the adrenaline junkie shares his grooming habits, his heart-pumping hobbies, and how he lives the cool and quiet life under the lights of fame.

GOOD LEADERSHIP

I’ve been an employee and a business owner for nearly two decades now and during one of the long nights of 2020, I asked myself, “What kind of leader do I want to be?” This is a question that can easily be answered by, “I want to be a good leader.” But the truth is, it is so difficult to even come close to good. You see, many if not all of our jobs is a business, a business that has to keep spending at bay, one that has to increase profits year over year, and one that has to keep workers happy and motivated. Those things are polar opposites of one another and to find the perfect middle is challenging. For months, I’ve mulled over my own question and I think I’ve found the answer. I want to be that leader that inspires personal growth.

BE HAPPY

Two months ago, I was announced as the head of One Mega Group, a position previously held by our late Founder, Sari Yap, and then our current Chairman, Archie Carasco. Full disclosure, I knew about this announcement six months ago at the height of the pandemic. When I was told, I laughed. I wasn’t sure if it was a nervous laughter, an amused chuckle or both. I honestly thought it was a prank that would be revealed seconds later, but it wasn’t.

It was certainly a moment of jarring disconnect the moment an airplane was not only in plain sight, but within arms length one Saturday morning. As known of a fact as it is, one cannot contest that the absence of liberal travel is definitely something that hit us hard in this pandemic.
