M.T.I. Salvador Hernández Vázquez
With Tony I had the pleasure of working and is a leader focused on the needs of the client, always concerned about the quality of the work as well as satisfying every need of it, a leader who preaches with the example, without a doubt with great management skills Always oriented to continuous improvement, it was a pleasure to work with it and would be nice to do it again

Durante el tiempo que estuve trabajando con José Antonio demostró ser un gran líder, que supo explotar las habilidades y competencias de sus equipos de trabajo. Promovió el trabajo en equipo con el fin de potenciar los talentos individuales de cada uno de sus integrantes y eso nos hizo un equipo más sólido y completo. El trabajo con él fue muy ameno y enriquecedor profesionalmente, además de que es un experto en competencias conversacionales. Trabajar con José Antonio fue una gran experiencia y fue parte importante de mi crecimiento profesional.

Jose Antonio (Tony, as we call him) is a role model for visionary, coaching and affirmative leadership styles. I cannot overstate the influence and positive effect he had on our team, he is a master of inter-personal relations with a laser-sharp focus on achieving business results. His coaching style set a standard I try to emulate to this day, and his mastery of language anthology revealed to me the value of communicating in a fair, precise and direct manner. His personal qualities extend beyond the work environment; he attended my wedding and had a little chat with my mother before the reception Vals, suffices to say I have never seen a bigger proud-smile on her face.
