Given how tough things looked back in January, it feels weird to be sitting here at the halfway point and reflecting back on what a good year 2009 has been for us so far.
Last year (2008) was a great year for Jack Morton EMEA, thanks to some tough talking the year before (2007) about the economic climate, some tightened belts and some tough targets.
That momentum started by Julian Pullan our EVP and delivered by everyone here, has all rolled up into 2009 and I think we’ve even surprised ourselves by how we’ve kept it going.
Ask any sportsman or woman and they’ll tell you the same thing.
Get into your stride and nothing can stop you.
Success can be about maintaining your momentum.
Sure, you may base your day-to-day motivation in things like a preferred routine.
Even lucky underpants.
But as long as you maintain your focus and do not become complacent.
Once you get it going you’ll be unstoppable.
