2004 Annual Report MANPOWER INC.28
We are confident that 2004 will be marked as a turning point year for Manpower.
At the core, Manpower and its offerings today, and what we are creating for the
future, will redefine the industry. This is a bold statement, but one that we at
Manpower believe in, strive for, and have the discipline and execution to achieve.
The best is yet to come.
I would like to thank the 27,000 talented, hard-working people of Manpower who
deliver the best service in the industry, and make it all worthwhile through their
exceptional dedication.
In addition, I would also like to thank our Board of Directors for all of their insight
and support. We welcome Marc Bolland, executive board member of Heineken
N.V., as our newest member of the board, joining in 2004.
And finally, I would like to thank our shareholders for their commitment to
Manpower and their continued confidence that we are poised for even greater
performance in the years to come.
What’s next? We’ll be ready.
JEFFREY A. JOERRES
CHAIRMAN, CEO & PRESIDENT
