The invite’s for end of financial year parties have all but stopped filtering through receptions. Accountants are enjoying their last week of relative solitude before the rush of number crunching ensues. You can almost here the tax man rubbing his hands as he waits to pounce.

For most however it’s a time for assessing the year, forecasting final results, and rewarding staff for a another busy year. In retail it’s time for end of finacial year sales, with sale staff frantically trying to get stock out the door. As a consulting firm, our stock is our collective interlect and knowledge (our area of expertise -Project Planning) and as it stands, our customer base was already screaming for that stock all year.

So at JCA as we continue to serve our clients base, we may get a chance to reflect on the year however, more likely, we will be looking forward to what lies ahead in the coming year.
