I finished up my business travel in 2024 with a trip to Tulsa, Oklahoma. The main purpose being to celebrate the retirement of our dear colleague Marianne Hillhouse after a 42 year career with MPSI / Kalibrate It was very fulfilling to be able to speak with numerous colleagues past and present. It led me to think of New Zealands indiginous Maori culture, where they use the word Whakapapa (broadly translated as "place in layers" or "create a foundation") to describe one's genealogy, linkage to Ancestors, spirituality and geographical surroundings. I felt a parallel here with our business; it was inspiring and humbling to be in the presence of such colleagues who represent the rich DNA of our company, and a reminder that whilst we must continue to professionally and personally strive for invention, innovation and transformation, we must do so recognising the value of our shared experience and knowledge in the spirit of our beginnings. I'll be taking a well earned rest over the festive period; wishing all my connections the best ahead of 2025!
