Christmas trip to the mountains
This year we afforded ourselves really enough of time for the Christmas party-whole two days. After the demanding year all of us deserved it, so on December 13, 2012 the teams of the consulting companies Jenewein Group, Amrop and Fipra and the analytical institute EPPP got on the train at the Bratislava main station and through Poprad-Tatry were taken to the Nový Smokovec. In Villa Siesta waited for us a comfortable accommodation, great food and first of all a lot of fun what we interlaced with walks and stay in the fresh Tatra's air. We enjoyed the time for dance, conversations and gourmet specialities to the last moment-some of us almost to the Friday's train departure and return back home. The Christmas raffle was not missed, everybody gave and got something. And it is needless to say that-however last year we thought that it is impossible to go further, we got over the existing maximum of the good mood and we are looking forward to what will bring us the year 2013...

Light of Understanding
Companies Amrop Dr. Kaufmann & Partner and Amrop Slovakia are two of the main partners of the concert Light of Understanding which took place on November 7, 2012 at the same time in The Spanish Synagogue and Church of the Holy Spirit in Prague. The father of the idea and promoter of this unique project is Peter Gyori, musician and priest of The Spanish Synagogue in Prague. Celebration of tolerance, empathy and extraordinary musical performances is organized once a year and its uniqueness determines not only the venue but also the composition of the performers of different genres of music-from classical music through folklore to jazz. The concert is every year largely attended by the members of the diplomatic corps and representatives of leading political, economic and spiritual life.

Amrop University/Researchers & Associates Campus Session
After last year's Researchers & Associates Campus Session in Amsterdam as part of Amrop University, an educational program designed for development of Amrop professionals, this year moved to mainland Italy. Researchers, consultants and analysts from the Executive Search companies operating on the market under the common brand Amrop spent four days-from 24 to 27 October 2012 in Rome. The program was, as in the previous ten years, focusing primarily on professional training and exchange of experience. Under the leadership of the best lectors the main topic was about specific features such as the contexts based approach to Executive Search, which differ Amrop from the competition, about the high ethical principles-based approach to clients and candidates and examining the qualities of human potential. In addition to new knowledge and skills the participants of Amrop University took away new experience from the social part of the program-Rome offers many possibilities. Slovak Amrop was represented by Marek Hradílek, Senior Consultant.
Automotive & Industrial Practice Group in Brussels
From October 12 to 14, 2012, the global meeting of Amrop Automotive & Industrial Practice Group was held in Brussels what was attended by 18 partners, mostly from European countries. As Mario Fondati who represented the Slovak office said, meeting was initiated by German colleagues as representatives of the strongest European economy and the automotive great power who took over leadership of this working group recently. Participants of the meeting dealt with the most important today's issues but also discussed the further strategic direction of the industrial sector which represents the largest share on the consulting activity of Amrop. They agreed on the specific tasks that lead not only to the improvement of the services providing beside the changing needs of the clients (another common approach for the global clients or possible extension of services portfolio) but also to the strengthening of internal communication among partner companies. The following meeting of Automotive & Industrial Practice Group will be held in January 2013 at the annual Amrop EMEA conference in Tegernsee, Germany.

We worked (and drove) for joy
Few weeks ago, consulting company Amrop Slovakia with its very own enthusiasm participated in a competition of Rádio Expres Pracuj pre radosť! (Work for joy!). Although the top award the team for the original video filmed in the company spaces did not win, as a surprise we received a special gift from BMW Group Slovakia-the new BMW 1 Series which we were testing for a whole week. Noticeable driving characteristics caused a pure joy from the drive to all who tried a new car. Encouraged by the reward we are prepared to participate in a competition again.
