Bio
Christoph Lindemann
Jari comes with an excellent combination of customer focus, business acumen, cost awareness and delivery quality. He is a prime example for a first-class service manager, which both his customers and his colleagues repeatedly highlighted to me. It is a joy working with Jari, always knowing that he delivers what he promises. I have full and unconditional trust in Jari and I strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a person leading a large service delivery team.
Andrea Manns
As an IT Production Manager for Financial applications Jari fulfilled a crucial role. Towards his stakeholders, i.e. Nokia's Finance leadership team, he was able to explain IT issues in an understandable manner. He asked the right questions in a quiet, constructive and confident manner in order to receive requirements that relevant IT specialists could implement, e.g. capacity, performance, availability of service and support. Towards IT specialist teams, Jari took leadership, used his technical knowledge to explain what's needed and followed up on the implementation. This way he easily built trust with colleagues from all management levels from within and outside IT, which enabled him to handle difficult situations like major incidents or project delays. Jari is a great asset to any organization, I can highly recommend him.
