@VictoriaPlumUK I'd like to exchange something (ordered wrong size) and ideally would like to return item at same time as replacement item arrives (saving effort, energy, the environment ...). Any way I can do that? Stuck in predictive live-chat nightmare ...

@sallyeaves That's the trouble - and the great benefit - of those debates; we could keep talking - but prompting the thinking is the whole point. Thanks again!

[Samantha Bentley @SamBentley72]

Really thought this was a fabulous discussion; role of tech and innovative thinking to address #ClimateChange - good to have you with us again @sallyeaves! #ThinkUKI

[Jodie Wells @Jodie_Wells1]

Fascinating start to the 'The Wake Up Call For #ClimateChange' debate at #ThinkUKI.

In the words of @sallyeaves 'Emerging technology, R&D and collaboration should work together as a force for good - there’s so much we can do with smart technologies to reduce energy waste.' 🌍

The importance of 'psychologicial safety' in the workplace - to empower employees to act in an agile, empathetic way. #customerexperience #enterprisedesign. Great perspective from @S_devonshire @theMarketingSoc #ThinkUKI

Great #leadership and #customerexperience discussion at the #CMO Exec Briefing today #ThinkUKI - 'we need to trust and inspire - not command and control' with @s_devonshire @annabelvenner @TheMarketingSoc

@CorinneSDoherty Interesting read in light of our conversation this week on networks.

[WPP @WPP]

Our UK Country Manager @Blackett_kt asks leaders to check their circles: "Who are the closest four people you go to at work when you want advice? If they're similar to you in terms of background you're not doing anything to help create more diversity of thought" - read more:

America. Remember this. Remember this on November 3rd.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

"Let’s do this another way. Let's stop thinking our voice don’t matter and vote. Not just for the president...educate yourself and know who you’re voting for. And that’s how we're going to hit 'em."

[Samantha Bentley @SamBentley72]

He also said "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter". This matters.

[Jim Whitehurst @JWhitehurst]

Dr. King once wrote "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." Those words have rang all too painfully true these last few weeks. Thank you @ArvindKrishna for making clear @IBM will not condone racism and will continue to fight discrimination. https://t.co/2KAoRURbb8
