Bio
Dan Booth
Stewart has been one of the most professional, respectful, collaborative and committed team members I had the pleasure of working with, in our team. In conjunction with this, he is passionate about quality and going beyond expectations. It's a pleasure to collaborate with like-minded professionals who had our business and the development of our people at heart. His technical experience and dedication to finding solutions to challenges helped many of our customers and colleagues on a regular basis. Stewart was a pleasure to work with and would be an asset to any company, I can't recommend him enough.

Stewart has undoubtedly been one of the shining stars in the Datacom Salesforce Practice that has enabled its rapid growth. Not only technically but in the role of a leader he has transformed himself in such a relatively short period of time. Leading with confidence his team follows with the same confidence in their work with customers with the knowledge he has their back when needed and ear when wanting to learn. Stewart delivers exceptional value to the leadership team through his honest and open feed forward and adoption of all of the practice ways of working. He holds the pulse of the practice because he was foundational in building it and now an architect for its future development. Thank you for your outstanding service Stewart.
