"Faced with what we thought was a completely impossible schedule for a make or break export order to Iraq we commissioned Smartspeed. To our delight and amazement we achieved the impossible deadline and at the same time completely overhauled our systems and management approach Don't be fooled by Giles' jovial exterior, beneath that lies an extremely smart and manipulative core which can seriously improve your company."
