I have known Chris for many years and worked with him on two projects involving the implementation of workplace well-being initiatives. Even though Chris is highly skilled in program development, he always looks for opportunities to develop his skills and knowledge. Chris is a supportive manager and this makes him get the best out of every team member. He pays attention to details and therefore identifies everyone's strengths and weaknesses. Chris gives feedback constructively and always looks for opportunities to help others develop their skills. I highly recommend Chris for managerial positions. He is a great manager and a collaborative colleague.
