Adrian, with over 15 years of experience in car rental in Ireland working for Enterprise and Sixt in various capacities such as Operations, Channel Management, and Sales, understands the pivotal role car rental operations play in serving customers, often being their initial point of contact after long flights.

He outlines three types of goals—A, B, and C—highlighting the significance of pursuing goals driven by burning desires. Visualizing success mentally is underscored as a potent tool in achieving these objectives. In essence, Adrian advocates for a proactive mindset, strategic focus, and a willingness to evolve in the dynamic car rental industry.
