João Torres é uma daquelas pessoas que você tem o privilegio de conhecer na vida, se relaciona com muita facilidade, criando um ambiente muito bom de trabalho, conseguindo extrair o que ha de melhor na sua equipe e assim atingir as suas metas (bem, pelo menos foi assim comigo!). Por ter uma uma larga experiencia adquirida na 3M e também ter trabalhado como consultor, consegue ter uma visão sistêmica abrangente, entendendo como circular "pelos dois lados da mesa". O que demonstra sua inteligencia e capacidade.

O João é um excelente profissional, o qual tive prazer de trabalhar. É um líder descentralizador que deixa seus subordinados trabalharem com muita liberdade de maneira que todos consigam utilizar suas melhores habilidades para gerenciar suas atividades. Procura sempre auxiliar na evolução profissional de todos ao seu redor e sempre está atento aos feedbacks e solicitações dos demais. Além de todas as outras atribuições já mencionadas, João tem um caráter exemplar.
