Ohio On My Mind

Towards the end of last year I was chatting with Dad about life, the universe, and everything. He asked if I had plans for the forthcoming year, and I told him I would do some work in the USA. Following the direction of my 2012 pledge, I said I didn’t know where, what or how, I just knew I would.  Dad replied, ‘Go ahead and make me proud’.

Yesterday I signed the contract which confirms I’ll be speaking, blogging, tweeting, meeting and learning at the 2012 Ohio State HR Conference. I’m humbled and excited to be given this opportunity, and even though for well documented reasons I can’t pass the news to Dad in person, I reckon he would be feeling the same.

So to the good people of Ohio I say this. I salute the flag of the state of Ohio and pledge to the Buckeye State respect and loyalty. And to Steve Browne I say, I’m totally geeked dude!

More news on my USA expansion plans to follow. Meanwhile – what are you doing differently in 2012? I’d love to hear from you.

  2. Thanks Ali and Chris. Sooooooooo excited! I love it when a plan comes together, particularly one which at the time of hatching felt so speculative.
