I highly recommend Sam as a manager who has truly made a significant impact on my career.

Honing years of teaching and training experience he has the innate ability to develop and deliver content that is current and impactful. He has a masterful way of developing any given topic into top class learning and development content - an absolute super power of his! During training sessions, Sam has an exceptional talent for connecting people, their interests, and their work to the subject matter being taught. He is extraordinary at making people want to learn. Even more so in giving others the confidence, through his training, to become facilitators themselves. With an enthusiastic spirit Sam freely shares his ideas and expertise. As his direct report, I have personally experienced his guidance and seen how he extends his support to the entire team. Sam's dedication to knowledge sharing is evident in his efforts to create content, automate processes, and integrate GenAI into our workflows, all with the aim of achieving the best outcomes for our team and our customers.
