Amir is a great talent. Amir has the ability to see big pictures and combine this with detailed plans. Amir has an enormous will to learn and to deliver. He understands the importance of surrounding himself with great people and is focused on leading and promoting others rather than himself. Amir has in a short period of time become a leader of magnitude and is paced for a great career ahead. Amir runs his business unit as though it was his own Company and takes full responsibility of results and tasks. Amir still takes certain risks and loves to try new things and I believe that is one of Amir's core strengths. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Amir. His will to learn, improve and deliver makes him an great resource for any organization and he has my fullest support in his future endeavors. Fredrik Widell
