The tax team in Cincinnati

Well I moved to Cincinnati, Ohio to work at the HQ of Procter & Gamble.   I now have "global" in my job title, because everyone in Cincinnati is automatically global even though they may not even have a passport!

Here's the boss, smirking away.  Actually I had another picture, but the unfortunate thing called camera lenses meant that it looked like he was all gut, no head...

Braveheart of the Mountains, also known as Stuart, is the Director of the Transfer Pricing Group.  Well, I was going to say the nascent group, but seeing that Stuart, Larry and I had been working as a group informally for 3 years before it was formalised, that term "nascent" doesn't really apply!

The Prof, also known as Larry.  He has been our touchstone as to what the principle should be, before we then went out and cut deals that sail close to the wind.  Without him, we would be all over the shop when it came to our transfer pricing.

 

Linda, my co-worker.  She is the person who had been tasked with holding the fort until I got there.  And so when I arrived, she handed me the stuff and said, "Sort it out!"

She has been with P&G way way longer than I had, and had a great working relationship with many of the people we needed to interview as part of our project.   Much to the surprise of some people, we actually got to do quite a lot of our interviews - then again, as I said knowingly to another colleague, "Linda there, has a lot of pull around here, you know.."

Then we have both good old Tim.  My age, but father of 4.  Man!  Cheery guy who must have a real handful with 4 kids!
