Remembering Bev Sved

(This letter was sent to Scarsdale10583 by Arnaud Bezard-Falgas)
Searching the web on people who counted in my career, I feel so sorry to come across this announcement. 

I got to know Bev back in 1985 in Paris. Finishing my business school, I worked as a trainee in the Market Intelligence department (of the IBM European headquarters), she was leading. Thus, I spent 6 months benefiting from her bright intelligence, business acumen and sharp and open mind. 

At the end, she strongly supported my application to a permanent job within IBM and the beginning of an 18-year career path that headed to a sales and marketing manager role through enjoyable intermediate positions. I measure to what extent I owe this to her and am still feel so grateful. I will not forget.

If you could pass on to her relatives my warm thoughts, I would really appreciate.

Many thanks in advance.
