I have known Ronaldo for over 5 years and have developed a great deal of respect and trust with him. Ronaldo excels at his role as it supports a company’s execution strategy. Ronaldo has helped me often by delivering results in the field to support commercial decisions in the board room. Ronaldo is a fantastic agri-businessman – solid respect and results in the field, as well as stellar data generated reporting to support commercial deal making with partners. Ronaldo could be counted on to deliver results and was also top at conveying the right messaging from trail data to terms that helped shape deal making commercially. I welcome the opportunity to work with Ronaldo again. He is an asset.
