I don't enter into writing recommendations lightly - reserved for the truly deserving. So it's my pleasure to vouch for Michael in a professional capacity. He displays a rare combination of strategic as well as tactical prowess in his research projects. His value comes in presenting relevant information and analysis... then making actional recommendations at the appropriate audience level(s). Equally impressive are Michael's "team play" - somehow he always found time to collaborate with colleagues on work efforts - and his approachable personality. Ask him about his multi-lingual ability, too.

Michael is an astute Competitive and Market Intelligence analyst. Very methodical in his approach, give him any topic to work on and he would come up with precise research, analysis and recommendations. Always willing to work collaboratively, Michael is a great team player. His broad knowledge on variety of topics, international exposure and his eagerness to service stakeholders would make Michael valuable in any organization.
