Without wanting to defend such an obviously
clue (and PR-awareness) deficient response,
which gave me major chuckles, I'm slightly
sympathetic in that
a) it only takes one idiot to damage an organisation's
reputation by not accurately representing their
views
b) in most major consulting firms, internal projects
and work are not highly rated, and don't tend to
represent the best of the firm's abilities as presented to
clients. We don't usually have people long-term and
fulltime on internal projects in case they lose touch
with reality.
Cheers
Martin
