[Marketing] [Board] division of responsibilities between marketing and board committees

[Marc Vloemans]

Cameron et al

I would be happy to step up to the plate. But if I you and others are willing to give me some pointers, that would help. For example; Helena asking for materials....for NA....me being not aware if there is existing material or this should be produced anew... And time pressing.....

Please note; Helena is presently in Holland so I could sync with here directly. 

Vriendelijke groet,
Marc Vloemans
