Brian Barensche - Chief Executive

September – we are already nearly three quarters of the way through 2010. What have you achieved in your business? How have you achieved relative to the planning you undertook at the beginning of the year?

As you know, the Sirdar Expedition Journal aims to both support you to reach new heights in your business by challenging your thinking, and provide you with updates on news that is relevant to you and your enterprise.

Make sure you take some time out and read this month’s edition. Just like the team that have just returned from climbing Kilimanjaro, if you do not take a moment to rest on a regular basis, you will not reach your Summit!

Best regards
Brian Barensche
