When it comes to finding the right person for a job – whether it’s football or any industry – it should always be about selecting the best individual for the role, regardless of where they’re from. Take Thomas Tuchel as an example. He's won the Champions League 🏆 and the Club World Cup 🏆 – his results speak volumes. If he can bring that winning mentality to the England squad and help us finally end 60-years of hurt and bring home a major trophy, does it really matter if he’s not English? The same logic applies in recruitment. The focus should be on skills, experience, and the ability to deliver results. Nationality, background, or anything else should never be the deciding factor. It’s all about who’s best for the job. Let’s get the best person in – and if that brings football home, even better!

🏆 Just like England at the Euros, the recruitment game is all about persistence and teamwork! 🌟 From the Euros, I've learned that persistence and teamwork are crucial, both on the pitch and in recruitment. Here’s how England's journey mirrors our own: 🏆 Persistence: Despite never winning, England steps out each tournament with unwavering belief. In recruitment, persistence, resilience and self-belief means the most - hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard! 🌟 Teamwork: Phil Foden was Premier League Player of the Year, but had an off day against Serbia. Your value isn’t just individual; it's amplified by the strength of your team. 🔍 Preparation: England spends years preparing for each tournament. Likewise, invest time in understanding your candidates and clients deeply for winning results. 🎉 Celebration: Every goal, every save, every successful hire is a step towards the ultimate win. Keep spirits high, eyes and celebrate each little win like Shaw's early goal in the last final! Let’s take a leaf out of England’s playbook and bring our A-game to recruitment! 💪⚽ #Recruitment #Persistence #Teamwork #Euro2024 #PhilFoden #itscominghome #education

🚨🇩🇪 Thomas Tuchel has just signed for England for the next 18 months!! 🇩🇪🔥 I won't pretend to know a thing about football beyond get the ball in the goal. I've only just learnt the offside rule, and to me the only difference between United and City is that one plays in red and the other blue. (fight me) But I've seen a lot of people hating the decision purely because he's German. Clearly these people have never hired someone who wasn't British. -- > In my experience, foreigners working in the UK have so often been the most lovely, hard working, and talented people I have ever known. It doesn't take a degree in sports science to see that Tuchel has got a stellar record, so why are people upset? The idea that England needs an English manager makes no sense. When hiring, you should only be considering who the best man for the job is. Anything less is denying our players the best talent they need to thrive. Stop selling our country short by saying you need to be a bleeding heart patriot to manage English players. They are some of the best in the world, and its a privilege for any man to have. I have no doubt in my mind that he will be doing his hardest to win. In the same vein, I think we should treat businesses the same: --> I don't care where you came from. If you're good at what you do, hard working, and eager to learn, you're the one for the job. At the end of the day, if you're winning, nothing else matters. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get back on the phone so I can start scoring. ⚽

🏆⚽ What a night for England! 🌟 The importance of Resilience Congratulations to the England team for their spectacular win in the Euro semi-final last night! The match was a rollercoaster of emotions, showcasing resilience, skill, and determination. A special mention to Ollie Watkins, whose journey exemplifies the importance of resilience in sports, work and life. From playing in the lower leagues to shining on the international stage, Watkins' perseverance and dedication serve as an inspiration to us all. His performance last night was a powerful reminder that with hard work and belief, anything is possible. This lesson on resilience is just as vital in the workplace. Like Watkins, we face challenges and setbacks in our careers, but it's our ability to stay focused, adapt, and push forward that ultimately leads to success. Whether it's overcoming a tough project, navigating organisational changes, trying to find a job or pursuing long-term goals, resilience is key to achieving greatness. This victory brings us one step closer to making history. Let's keep the momentum going and carry this spirit into the final. Onwards and upwards! #ThreeLions #EURO2024 #England #ProudToSupport #RoadToVictory #Resilience #OllieWatkins #WorkplaceResilience

Harry Kane Focused on Preserving Team Culture as England Prepares for New Era Under Tuchel Harry Kane has recently sparked conversations about the importance of maintaining a strong team culture within the England squad. His comments about the significant number of player withdrawals during a demanding season have been a talking point, though he later clarified that his intention was to highlight the need to protect the team’s cohesion.

English premier league comes to an end. As a football fans (Manchester United 😂), there’s always something I can learn from this. 1) both Manchester city (4th times champion in a row) and Manchester United had a good manager. 2) both had support from their owner (money). 3) Manchester City had better and reliable top management than Manchester United. In term of signing the right player 4) Manchester City had a better and reliable players. (With the substitue players can make an impact) I don’t want to go into deep but in projects, No matter how good a manager is you cant have a success project if you dont have support from the owner, a reliable top management and a good team members.

One of the strange ways of life for the majority of English people is the hype it creates around its football team at a tournament and then the kicking it gives when that squad doesn't meet those crazy external expectations. Watching, listening and reading what is being written about Gareth Southgate, and then the way he reacts (or doesn't) should be a lesson to every England fan. 1. External opinion you have zero control over shouldn't be allowed to affect you and your mission. 2. External results you have zero control over shouldn't affect how you live your day to day life. 3. Always remember how far you have actually progressed but understand there is still more to be done. Gareth Southgate 4 years ago was a god walking amongst mere mortals and now he is getting a kicking on every single media outlet. Yes, it comes with territory of being England manager, but don't forget we have done nothing in a major tournament for a long time. But more importantly, what does it actually matter how this England team does in the Euros? What will that change in your life? I suppose, I just find it funny how much people allow external forces to control their lives, careers and opportunities they go for. Instead people should be more like Gareth, single-minded on the goal at hand and doing whatever it takes to get there.

Are you a Leicester City or Manchester City? In 2016 Leicester City for the first time in their history won the English Premier League 🥇. It was a a fairytale story for the club who managed to win against the odds achieving the ultimate goal of winning the league. Since then Manchester City has won 6 of the last 8 titles becoming one of the most successful teams in recent years (financial irregularities aside 😁 ) Most business owners will set goals 🥅 at some point and with a good team, favourable economy and a bit of luck will achieve the one-off goal. Once the goal is achieved a lot of owners don't know what to do next or lose the drive and motivation to go to the next level. They settle for the one-off achievement. What differentiates the great owners from the good is the ability to continually reset goals and push to hit the goal over a long time irrespective of what is happening in the economy or changes to the team. What keeps you motivated and accountable to reach your goals?

While it's easy to think that representing our nation only happens on the rugby field or through big public displays, the truth is, each of us carries that responsibility every day, especially when we live or work abroad. I recently had an interesting conversation with a recruiter in Australia, and it reinforced the idea that our individual actions can shape how other countries perceive us. If we don’t hold ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, excellence, and loyalty, we risk discrediting not just ourselves but our fellow countrymen. We are part of a collective image, and every positive or negative interaction reflects back on our country. There's enough sunshine for everyone to bloom — let’s not let ourselves or our homeland down. Every day, in big and small ways, we can uplift and inspire others, upholding the values and culture that make us proud. We are the living legacy of our nation, and it’s up to each of us to represent it with dignity and pride. #Integrity #Excellence #PrideInYourWork #AmbassadorsAbroad #UpliftYourNation #IntegrityMatters #CultureAndCommitment #PersonalResponsibility #GlobalCitizen #PositiveImpact #LeadByExample #NationalPride #CulturalAmbassador #TogetherWeRise #RespectAndResponsibility
