A sincere thank you to those who supported the Abused Child Trust fundraising at Baguette Bistrot and Bar last Monday night. It was a huge success with $30,000 being raised for what is a tremendous organisation. I was deeply consoled by many people who this foundation holds a special place and to those of you who expressed this I am gratified on behalf of the Foundation. Next year will be a grander affair and I look forward to seeing you there!

For a change, good news this week coming out of the States with the US trade deficit narrowing. Exporters are obviously seeing the benefits in a weaker greenback. Any optimism from the States translates eventually to job hiring in our domestic market place. Great news except for the fact that certain industries are suffering from the skills shortage resulting in extended project completion times and reduced financial performance.

There has been a fair bit of commentary this week regarding upward salary pressures, but I see this mainly in those areas where the skills shortage is biting such as the mining and resources area and the energy sectors. Interestingly, the legal and accounting professions are also experiencing upward salary pressure. As organisations continue to broadcast increased profits this will surely create an environment where senior executive and mid level appointments once again attract significant increases in packaging arrangements.
