I read recently that a prominent nose can mean “determination”, while a thin nose is evidence of “uncertainty”.

Not normally someone who would look into a mirror, I checked this out and realised that my belief in this statement was going to be based on whether I could see “determination” from the shape of my nose. If yes, then the statement had to have some validity and if no, then it had to be an old-wives tale.

I remember being surveyed about the state of a technology sector five years into the future. I was one of a number of interviewees being questioned. When the report was finally released I was delighted to see that some of the report agreed with my opinion.

What then occurred to me was that some of the report actually was my opinion and this 5-year forecast was being recycled back to me.

I then wondered how often people read into a statement what they wish, without further investigation. 

Last year, 96.4% of respondents to our client survey confirmed that they would recommend eTeams to another company.

This is certainly the kind of response we had hoped for and we were delighted to read.

In the context of our complete survey, this percentage was indicative of the overall level of positive response we received from our clients.

As a management team, we spend time with our clients discussing their immediate and longer term needs.  We are determined to enhance their experiences of eTeams and to improve the quality of our conclusions and the effectiveness of our subsequent actions.

Thankfully, this approach means that I can avoid the need to display my resolve through a suitably angled portrait on our website.  

And no, this does not mean that I have a thin nose, at least not from this direction.
