Bio
Missie Jakusz
There are leaders and managers and Kevin is a true example of a leader who people respect, trust, look to for guidance, and want to follow. Over my career I have had the opportunity to work both with and for Kevin and have always been impressed by his ability to think strategically while ensuring the tactical work is accounted for and understood. Kevin’s technology curiosity is second to none and he has used that time and again to educate not only his organization, but vendors, to deliver a better customer experience and increase the overall knowledge base.

Kevin is one of the most effective remote team leaders I have had the pleasure to work for. He is very aware of timezone differences and is always willing to flex his schedule to facilitate calls, either with the EMEA team or my peers in LAO and Asia Pacific. He can easily adjust his management style to suit the situation, predominantly he will make a request and then let the team set about delivery, he is always available to provide coaching a guidance on request or as he sees fit. He is very skilled in presenting technical solutions to the business in language and scenarios that can make them understand what IT are going to deliver in terms of benefit. In my experience Kevin has always operated with honesty, integrity and will do the right thing for the business. He can be trusted to deliver what he says he is going to deliver and is committed to bringing new ideas / technology into the organisation.
