Nick Pantazis
I had the pleasure of working with Curt on both the Space Shuttle and the Space Station Programs. During our nearly 20 year journey, we worked on a variety of projects that ranged from strategic planning, proposal development, program management support, documentation and implementation of key organizational processes and culture change. He is a strategic thinker, but understands well the needs of balancing the people, processes, and tools of the company. Curt always keeps his pulse on the organization and strives to ensure that its culture is always aligned with the values and the strategic goals of the company. In our many spirited discussions, Curt almost always made me think about how to do things better. He has high expectations for his employees as well as contractors. Curt is a strong leader that can take on a variety of roles in the organization. He helps to remove barriers so that the organization can move toward achieving its strategic goals. He is one person that understands how to move an organization from

I had the pleasure of working with Curt for over 20 years. Curt autographs his work with excellence and brings unique international marketing skills to the job. I have seen him as a strategic thinker, driven program manager and as an entrepreneur penetrating new markets. Curt understands why things work the way they do in the international markets. He drives himself hard and expects excellence from his subcontractors. He has an unique combination of Technical, Managerial and Entrepreneurial skills that he brings to the job. I have learned from Curt and had the privilege of working with him on several complex initiatives. I strongly recommend Curt - He is a terrific asset to any organization.
