Bio
Ramon Martí
Trabajé con Xavier en el marco de una organización educativa en un corto pero intenso periodo en el que pude constatar su gran profesionalidad y alto nivel competencial. Xavier es una de las personas que siempre me querría encontrar como compañero en una organización. Su gran predisposición a colaborar, crear sinergias entre departamentos e implicación en los objetivos globales con una actitud positiva, cordial y dialogante hacen de él un referente a nivel de gestión. Recomiendo a todo equipo directivo de una organización del ámbito educativo el perfil de Xavier. Es una apuesta segura por la profesionalidad, implicación y capacidad de gestión en (los siempre necesarios) contextos de cambio.
