  3. A CLIENT REACTION-1 'In line with Sun's constant drive to improve customer service, we have a programme of on-going investment in staff capabilities. We have recently placed all our staff through a major BCS skills programme, which has both enthused my staff and delighted me'. Mike Threlfall of Sun UK commenting on a programme delivered by KPC through our BCS association.

  4. A DELEGATE REACTION - 1 Unsolicited feedback …… From: Sarah Brunner - Sun UK [mailto:Sarah.Brunner@UK.Sun.COM] Sent: 26 October 2000 14:36 To: michael.coleman@knowledgepool.com; steve.goble@knowledgepool.com Subject: RE: Conskils Cheltenham 10-13 October 2000 MORE STUFF Hi you guys - I was in your class a couple of weeks ago and just wanted to drop you a quick note - I was out at California headquarters with some others last week and guess what - we got a sudden opportunity to present a multi-million dollar pitch to an exec. We had 20 minutes to do it, with about 4 hours notice. We prepared our case just like in BCS class, then presented with quick demos and compelling arguments and everything, and not only did he end up giving us about an hour, but also called in another exec for us to present to AGAIN. We ended up getting a tentative go ahead worth a giant pile of money! It was AWESOME!! I was thinking about you guys the whole time! Best regards, Sarah Brunner (the Yank)
