Let’s rebuild country to honour dead heroes of 1916

We desperately need inspirational men and women to build on Ireland Inc’s incredible reputation abroad, writes Dan Kiely, CEO of Voxpro

IF THE events of the past week have taught us anything, it is that there are times when it is necessary to place the nation’s interests before those of the individual.

Thankfully, the vast majority of us will never find ourselves in such a position. We will never be asked to prove our patriotism, apart perhaps from waving the flag or singing ‘Amhrán na bhFiann’. Almost certainly we will never be called upon to sacrifice ourselves for the greater good but, then again, neither were the men and women of 1916.
