Emphasizing the need for collective work, he called on employees to fully engage in this new dynamic. “Your expertise, your rigor, and your sense of public service will be the true drivers of this new phase,” he declared, stressing that the institution's success will depend on the discipline, solidarity, and sense of responsibility of each individual.
