Gavin, the instances of Yes and No in your list prompts me to ask:
are you rating Marketing? In other words:

Does Marketing exhibit properties that would conform to the term
'Transforming'?
to which your answer is NO.

If not how should I read this part and relate it to Marketing?

kind regards

Chris
