Managing director last week, it was put to me that we need to look into expansion into new markets. And I am interested in any suggestions that anyone in our department may come up with.
You had some excellent ideas for expansion last year when we moved to the Mid-eastern marker.
So if you could all give that some thought, I know, Sarah, that you said you looked into the possibility of further eastern European customers on your last trip to the Czech Republic, and I’ll be interested in your report, uh, when it’s ready.
Question 16 And Androme, have you got those figures for the suggestions for the new courses that we hope to be able to offer? Or were those in the file that you left in the office too. I’d like to take them with me to the interdepartmental meeting this afternoon, as it should be a good opportunity to try to persuade everyone there of the value of the new courses , and the new language training scheme in particular. If I’m successful in this, it could mean some profitable expansion for all of us in our department. So please remember to get then to me this time.

Question 17 Well , I don’t know. We didn’t really talk about my department. Most items on the agenda seem to be about our new marketing strategy or something, which has very little to do with me. Well, I suppose it will affect me eventually. Because if we do expend, a lot more staff are going to be needed. So I’ll be busy interviewing for a while. But apparently that’s unlikely to be before next September. Actually that is a point, though. Perhaps we should think about taking our holiday in France before then because you said something about being very busy in your job after August. We don’t want the same complications as last year.
