Accelerator

I was at the gym this morning and whilst they were announcing some new 4 week crash programme called accelerator, it had me thinking about what has happened at Punch in the last few days alone and our progress of late. Whilst I'm not typically prone to reflection, preferring to think about what we're not doing and perhaps should be, the odd glance backwards, particularly when progress is being made, is undoubtedly a great source of motivational energy for me.
In the last seven days I have had the privilege of being in Dubai for 24 hours and Turkey for 36 hours respectively, working alongside an international multi-agency team to help provide support on how best to manage social media campaigns in local markets. Not only that but we've won two pieces of business, been invited to pitch for two major brand projects and I'm on my way to another meeting in London as I type.
Fortunately, we're now looking down the barrel of the weekend and I have my two daughters for the day on Saturday (whilst the boss is away), so I'm looking forward to a change of pace - no less hectic no doubt but in a different mode altogether. Perhaps I'll get a lie in on Sunday after one of my colleague's birthday party on Saturday night - but then again, I seriously doubt it...
