Amar Kotian is an Officer's Manager. When you interact with him, you feel you are talking to a friend more than your Manager. His easy-going friendly nature is his strength through which he has developed and maintained personal contacts with many people. This trait has helped him establish good relations with the market/ channel partners and his team & colleagues. Tact, Crisis Management, Out-of-the Box thinking and Relationship management are some of his qualities, worth emulating. Sir, it's been a privilege to have been a part of your team.

I worked closely with Amar in two roles i.e. in Sales & Supply Chain. Amar is a very dedicated and seasoned Sales professional who understands what it takes to grow high in the businesses. He's a very creative leader and can not only leap ahead of everyone with new ideas and future vision, but can also drill down to fine detail on all aspects of a business. He can be counted on to plan carefully and thoroughly, to mobilize the needed resources, to motivate stakeholders, and to make sure things get done in a timely manner with great results. Amar is extremely committed to his work and never settled for a sub-par performance. His sensitivity, diligence, energy and sense of humor made working with him a joy. I wish Amar all the best for his future.
