Benjamin is one of a few people who efficiently lead their teams forward and have the ability to mentor and motivate to achieve long term goals. His joining our organization was a value addition as he made significant structural changes in the entire operations of our organization resulting in time efficiency and proper task management. He is approachable and open to teach and help people grow in their careers, he is fun to work with. He will certainly be an asset to any organization he works with.

Ben is a great guy - smart, organized, funny and dedicated. He has broad experience and knowledge, and works very well with diverse groups of people. 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. Ben is also an adept multitask-er that has allowed him to excel in multiple roles in the time that I worked with him. From Sales to Production, Ben's creativity and drive were second to none, and his attitude; exemplary. He is one of the best colleagues I have worked with and I would not hesitate to recommend him for any senior role, as he would be an invaluable asset to any organization.
