Gordon is one of the best managers I worked with. A multi skilled professional who understood the dynamics of the entire organization, not just his functional area. Gordon had excellent people skills and was able to turn difficult situations to funny experiences I learnt a lot from; always maintaining composure during times of stress. He Communicates excitement, enthusiasm, and passion and gets his team motivated to perform just because of his continious positive energy.
