Eu tenho muito a agradecer ao Leandro pelo ensinamento que tive nesse quase 1 ano de Lobby pela visรฃo sistรชmica, racional e voltada para resultados. Aprendi o que eu precisava para ser um profissional melhor e serei eternamente grato! Muito obrigado, Leandro!

Thiago Ganzarolli

O Leandro tem excelentes capacidades de desenvolvimento de produto, enfatizando sempre o usuรกrio. Seus empreendimentos no setor de serviรงos de consultoria lhe garantiram essa visรฃo. Tambรฉm tem anseio por aprender mais tecnicamente, podendo assim entregar software mais eficiente e com maior qualidade. Porรฉm foi no quesito "gestรฃo de pessoas" que mais aprendi com ele. O Leandro se preocupa em tratar funcionรกrios, coworkers ou sรณcios como pessoas de fato e nรฃo meras peรงas, de uma forma genuรญna. ร‰ possรญvel observar que seu MBA e busca por especializaรงรฃo nessa รกrea fizeram diferenรงa. Particularmente em times รกgeis essa รฉ uma caracterรญstica mais essencial ainda.
