Ksenia Rostislavleva
Hafi and I have worked very closely together on a number of innovation projects in pharma and consumer healthcare industries. From day one, she demonstrated keen ability to learn, impressive attention to detail and a strong drive to succeed. She has rapidly mastered the entire toolkit of secondary and primary research including technology landscaping, trend evaluation, clinical evidence review and interviews with key opinion leaders. From there on, Hafi took full responsibility for day-to-day project work, including research, report writing and generation of actionable recommendations for clients. As we continued to work together, Hafi became an irreplaceable member of my team, and a
Debbie McIntosh
I had the opportunity to work with Hafi and learn from her in an area of the business that I had not been exposed to before. She led the activity in a project for a key F&B client, planning and shaping the project method and delivery in addition to executing the primary and secondary research. I was particularly impressed with her ability to take the initiative, lead research, and grasp the intricacies of a very technical subject matter which she then articulated clearly and confidently to the client. I have learnt a lot from Hafi in a short amount of time, and have utmost confidence in her capability and potential both technically and as a manager/ mentor in the future.
