Gary managed the Business Development front for Veeda CR in USA, when I worked for Veeda - Project Management. In my experience, Gary was undoubtedly one of the seniormost, widely experienced and very knowledgeable Business Development Professionals I worked with. He had a clear understanding of the Cultural Diversity and Work dynamics related aspects when it came to Service Delivery. His sound scientific insight only helped Project Managers like me to understand the Client expectations and do all the necessary operational co-ordination. He never left a corner for surprises and the project mapping was made very simple due to his hand-holding ability. Overall, it was a great pleasure working with Gary.
