A Week of Good Meetings Overseas
July 9, 2007
I spent a week at the offices of one of my primary clients in Dublin, Waterford, and London, and two days in Boston visiting with BL, PP, JF, and TG, high school friends.
The job in Ireland was to launch one new business and reposition an old one. Like every major business challenge, this one is about people - finding them, training them, motivating them. It's been more than a year since I worked with this business in a serious way, and I was a little anxious about being able to get everything on track. The good news is that I wasworking as part of a three-person team. Where I fall short, they will stand forward.
London was more fun. LD set up a slew of creative brainstorming sessions with six of their publishing divisions. I'll be helping with their advertising campaigns and reviewing new products. That's work I like, because I'm good at it and I know it matters.
