Here at Milestone consulting we live by the “WORK HARD, PLAY HARD” mentality. Top Account Rep, Donald Ullery, won an office competition to attend the Oklahoma City Thunder vs Miami Heat game on Sunday.  With the 103 – 87 victory over LeBron and company, the Thunder improve to a 30-2 record and STILL undefeated at Chesapeake Energy Arena.  We are already for the playoffs! THUNDER UP!

To celebrate our achievements throughout 2011 and set goals for 2012, the management at Milestone Consulting flew to Atlanta, Georgia, to our organization conference. The event spanned the weekend and included workshops for managers and administrators along with speeches by top guys in the business!

The Keynote Speaker for the event, Eric Greitens, was a navy seal who served overseas and also founded The Mission Continues, a non-profit organization which helps veterans continue to serve their country and community after returning home from war. His invigorating speech focused on training to become a navy seal, the incredible challenges they faced, and the success they felt after reaching their goals.

Between speakers, the audience was entertaining by performers of Cirque du Soleil, only continuing the theme that hard work and dedication will let you reach whatever goal you set for yourself. We all had a great time in Atlanta, and came home to Oklahoma motivated to take on the new year!

The management team at Milestone Consulting spent the weekend in Puerto Rico for a weekend of rest, relaxation, and networking with the entire organization. After the long flight from Oklahoma City, the managers were greeted with a warm welcome at the resort and the invitation to join in a variety of activities, including dodgeball, snorkeling, and even jet skiing! While enjoying the adventures that Puerto Rico can bring, we also had the chance to just lay by the pool, soak in the sun, and spend time with friends. Every year the management team travels for rest and relaxation to a new destination in late summer, and we’re excited to see where next year might bring!

This Monday marked our grand opening in Oklahoma City! Brian and the crew loaded up the moving van over the weekend and took the thousand-mile journey from Columbus, Ohio, to Oklahoma City!

The office was given the opportunity to open its doors in a brand new location and represent the clients in a market filled with potential. From the very first day we generated revenue for our clients and will continue to work with them in Oklahoma City in the future. All of our coworkers have been very motivated since day one as well, quickly adapting to the city and finding plenty of fun things to do! More to come on our adventures and growth in Oklahoma City!
