Kurt often supported me in my Sales Support role in two important ways: First, by providing the all import ant, post-sale customer feedback that I needed to ensure that the customer was b eing properly taken care of, during the hand-off from Sales to Service. Kurt too k full ownership of all his accounts and the happiness and success of our custom ers, very seriously. Secondly, I relied upon Kurt to handle any "tough" technica l challenges that might arise during PCT (Production Consultant Training). This is the time when the metal meets the road and the customer is running live produ ction for the first time. Kurt's practical guidance, vast experience and technic al expertise were a tremendous asset to both new and existing customers in his r ole at Xeikon as a PCT Trainer. He possesses an incredible work ethic and can be depended upon to pitch in, whenever or wherever necessary."
