Director Of Communications Vodaphone was very kind to grant Latest Victory News a brief interview as he took time out from his busy on-message schedule.
Latest Victory News : Mr Vodaphone, is it true the DDS faces a financial crisis?
Vodaphone : Crisis is too strong a word. We feel the need for some financial restructuring.
LVN : So the DDS isn't 30 billion in the red?
Voda : I can't give you a ball park figure but lets just say we have made many investments lately to enhance the ability of our professionals to achieve their goals. We are very goal focussed in the New DDS.
LVN : But investment will continue or are programmes like the Panther in trouble?
Voda : At the New DDS we believe in value for money, and a greater bang for our buck. The Panther DX programme is a shining example of that and is totally safe. At the end of the day the DDS is working for you.
LVN : Moving on, is it true you are angry at Windscorpion for putting the Pentekonter in danger?
Voda : Mr Windscorpion sometimes is a difficult member of the team, sometimes he needs to remember that there is no I in Team but he is still a valued professional and brings a lot to the table.
LVN : So are you angry at him or not?
Voda : Its not a question of anger but a question of responsibility. We all have responsibility to the Purity Of Professionalism! His responsibility was sub-optimal in this occaision.
LVN : So is that a yes or a no?
Voda : Professionalism will prevail, now if you will excuse me i have a focus group meeting to attend.
