3 In my 25 years in business, I have never met anyone to match Kevin s extraordinary appetite for action. He does for business what Nike does for sport. Richard Hytner, Deputy Chairman, Saatchi & Saatchi Worldwide The need to get stuff done has never been more important in the world of 24/7 technology this book helps me have a more 12/7 life. Chris Macdonald, Managing Director, McCann Erickson I have been in hundreds of meetings where people talk for hours. It all sounds so persuasive, and yet several weeks later, still nothing has happened. Kevin nails the difference between talk and action. I would advise any executive in a company to read his suggestions for just getting on with it. Tom Hings, Director, Brand Marketing, Royal Mail Kevin brings energy and passion to skills and personal development. He shows creativity and innovation in his approach to helping people get things done. His ideas and concepts take projects forward and add great momentum. His pragmatic approach and focus on results add clear direction buy this book and learn. Marie Petts, Management Development Manager, News International
4 Getting stuff done has always been a bit of a problem in the ad industry. We re great at thinking about things and generally strategising whatever that means. We re also terrific at post rationalising and particularly post rationalising why something hasn t quite happened in the way that it should have. And of course we are consummate professionals at being late. Kevin s book provides a lot of hugely sensible disciplines some of which we probably know we should be applying (but probably aren t or certainly not consistently) and some of which will be new and more than a little handy in helping to get stuff done. In the modern world, when we can t get away with doing nothing immediately, Kevin s book is more than a little helpful. Jim Marshall, Chairman, Starcom Mediavest Group Kevin s book is fab! A delight to read, full of situations I recognise (and am sometimes quite guilty of creating) and it makes me smile. Anything that makes me sleep better and worry less gets my vote. Sue Farr, Director, Chime Communications plc

15 FOREWORD In my 25 years in business, I have never met anyone to match Kevin s extraordinary appetite for action. He does for business what Nike does for sport. I first learned how effective he was when I shared a desk with him in The Nursery at Benton & Bowles, where we both started as advertising graduate trainees. We were separated only by a desk-long divider. We could hear but not see each other. Each night at (on the dot), I would hear Kevin on his side of the partition chanting, Tick Achieve, Tick Achieve, Tick Achieve as if in some kind of trance. It took a fortnight for rampant curiosity finally to overcome Nursery etiquette as I sneaked a swift look over the top. There I glimpsed Kevin, contentment oozing from every pore, tick achieving, one by one, all the items on an immaculately laid out action list. I like him a lot now, but I hated him then. He s been tick achieving ever since. Not too long ago, I asked Kevin to help me teach the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising s Excellence Diploma module on Brand Leadership. Who better to inspire a group of talented youngsters in the art of getting stuff done? As he sat down after his master class, I said to him that he really should pass on the Duncan strand of Just Did It DNA to as many people as possible. I suggested he should write a book about it. I ll put it on my list, he said. He did. And, true to form, he got it done. Tick Achieve. Richard Hytner, Deputy Chairman, Saatchi & Saatchi Worldwide
