ANDERS CLEEMAN, VICE PRESIDENT IC COMPANYS
PERNILLE SKRIVER HAS, AS DESIGN MANAGER FOR PART TWO, PLAYED AN INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT ROLE IN
OUR EFFORT TO CREATE THE SHARP PROFILE PART TWO HAS TODAY. WITHOUT HER PASSIONATE AND ENGAGED CREATIVITY, THE BRAND WOULD NOT HAVE SUCCEDED IN BECOMING WHAT IT IS TODAY.

DAVE ROONEY, COUNTRY SALES MANAGER U.K. PART TWO, IC COMPANYS
I’VE HAD THE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH PERNILLE SKRIVER FOR OVER 10 YEARS. DURING THAT PERIOD, PART TWO HAS GONE FROM BEING THE SMALLEST IC COMPANYS BRAND IN THE U.K. TO THE LARGEST. I BELIEVE MUCH OF THIS SUCCESS IS A CLEAR RESULT OF PERNILLE’S TALENT.

MICHAEL STOCKFLETH, COMMERCIAL DIRECTOR AT DYRBERG/KERN
I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING CLOSELY WITH PERNILLE SKRIVER FOR THE LAST 4 TO 5 YEARS.
PERNILLE IS A VERY DETAIL-ORIENTED, HANDS-ON DESIGN MANAGER WHO IS NOT ONLY VERY STRONG IN THE DESIGN PROCESS, BUT UNDERSTANDS THE COMMERCIAL SIDE OF THE BUSINESS AS WELL. PERNILLE HAS PLAYED
A VITALLY IMPORTANT ROLE BOTH IN TRANSFORMING THE PREVIOUS OLD-FASHIONED PART TWO INTO A NEW
AND VIBRANT BRAND AND IN THE STRATEGIC PLANNING OF REPOSITIONING AND STRENGTHENING THE BRAND.
