Bio
Simon Asmussen
During the past 2,5 years I have had the pleasure to work with Daniel at IT Minds. I was hired by Daniel and was reporting directly to him in his role as Sales Director. First and foremost, Daniel has numerous qualities in his leadership that I can identify with as a person and sales professional. I will have to highlight his integrity internally and externally as one of his key qualities. I have highly appreciated this in his leadership. Daniel has always been very structured in his work which encourages his team to be proactive and organized in their sales efforts. Daniel possesses a strong result-orientation which is a driver in his activities. Though he has always prioritized the guidance of team members in urgent customer matters. I have always felt welcome to come and discuss complex customer cases. There has always been deliberate advisory to get at his desk. Daniel has a very analytical and positive approach to the specific challenge and he seeks to turn the matter in to the best possible solution for all stakeholders. You earn Daniel’s trust through a well-disciplined work effort and he has encouraged me to constantly grow as a sales professional. Specifically, Daniel has contributed with a strong focus on optimizing the internal processes in our Project Sales Department. As a result of this the project sales results have been transformed to a higher level. He put me in charge of driving the operations forward, which I have enjoyed the responsibility of. All of this means it has been a pleasure working with and learning from Daniel. I warmly recommend Daniel as a person and for any sales leader position. He earns my very best recommendation.

I had the pleasure of reporting directly to Daniel for two years at IT Minds. Daniel won my trust from the very start with his analytical and strategic approach. As a true leader, Daniel has both the mindset and the skill set to create a visionary strategy and operational tactics to meet long-term and short-term goals. He has played an important role in the growth of IT Minds by devising and implementing structured and scalable procedures in the sales departments. Daniel is an inspiring and motivational leader and he truly understands how to develop his team(s) by providing the tools, support, and training for each individual to succeed. Daniel has played an important role in my development as a manager, which I am truly thankful for. His skill set, motivational leadership, analytical and structural approach makes him a great leader and a genuine asset to any ambitious company. He earns my best recommendation.
