Mihai Alexandru Miras
Bogdan is in my opinion a complete professional, taking action as a strong and assertive project manager when the situation demands it, but also being a great colleague and mentor on a daily basis. He keeps his cool when things go downhill and by using his extensive knowledge and leadership abilities, sets the team on the right track. It was a real pleasure working with him and I hope our roads will continue to cross in the future.
