Bio
Damir Vukotic
I've worked with Andreas in the initial phases of an important project, and what immediately became clear was his deep expertise in risk management. His pragmatic approaches, allows him to get things done, yet to bring the risk management to the steering level. What I personally appreciated, is his ability to discuss uncomfortable truths which clients might not always prefer to hear; he does it in a true advisor manner, diplomatically, still managing to bring down discussions to the facts. Andreas is an open-minded advisor, who commits himself to sustainable delivery, yet thinks in terms of a bigg(er) picture. Due to his good judgement and proven work-habits I would recommend Andreas for any job.
