As you would be well aware, cashflow is the life blood that sustains an organisation.
With the global economy feeling more buoyant now than six months ago, it's tempting to believe the worst is behind us and revenue growth inevitably awaits.

Intranet Joke of the Week
A customer emails through an order to one of their suppliers, for a large amount of goods adding up to a substantial sum.
On receipt of the order, the supplier realises that the last, large invoice from that customer was still outstanding. Naturally, he responds "We are unable to ship your new order until we receive payment for the last one."
Opening his new mail the following day, the supplier observes an additional response from the client:
"Please cancel the order. We can't wait that long for delivery."
