Inspiration is one of the things that keeps us ticking at T-M – inspiring ourselves, each other and our customers. We never seem to run out of it! And when we unexpectedly do, we’re happy to inspire each other during our Friday Sharing Sessions or one-on-one. It’s got us thinking that inspiration is possibly something that everyone is looking for at some point.

So, we decided to try and understand where the inspiration keeps coming from for us, so we can share it with those who need it to give their inspiration juices a stir. Here we go:
