I have known Anton for three years when he worked as Management Consultant for the Institute for Sustainable Development. Anton has demonstrated leadership qualities with a commitment to deliver tasks in an efficient and effective manner.

He will be an asset to any organisation to lead a project or strategic initiatives.. He is relatively well informed and an aptitude to continuously learn with a high learning curve. He is a very good team player and contribute to the process of building a team as well as managing a team.
