Customer view: Saskia says a couple of directors were back in this week and one answered a client question she could not have answered before. She asks for a simpler agenda of three points.
Next: Daniel confirmed Thursday at 10:00 and will keep the agenda to three points.

Daniel Okafor 16 Sep 2025 12:30Hi Saskia, I hope the week has started well. Just a quick note to find a time for our next check-in. It does not need to be long, half an hour would do, and the aim is simply to see how things have moved since the review. Three things I would like to cover with you: - how the directors are finding it now - whether Holly has had a chance to look at the connected systems - anything you would like me to bring to the next conversation with Rupert Do you have space later this week or early next? I am flexible, so just tell me what suits you. Best wishes, Daniel
Saskia Mendes 17 Sep 2025 15:12Hi Daniel, Sorry for the delay, it has been a busy day. Good news is that a couple of the directors have been back in this week, and one of them asked a question in front of a client that she would not have been able to answer before. So it is moving, slowly. Thursday morning is best for me. Could we do 10:00? If that does not suit, Friday is fine after lunch. Can we make the agenda simpler than the one you sent last time? Three points is plenty. Best, Saskia- Daniel Okafor 18 Sep 2025 09:04Hi Saskia, That is good to hear, and thank you for passing on the story about the director. It is exactly the kind of thing I would like to build on. Thursday at 10:00 works for me, so I will send an invitation now. I will keep the agenda to the three points above and nothing more. Speak soon, Daniel
