Bio
Richard Brady
I worked with Lester in Malaysia and was always impressed by his positive attitude and work ethic. He is extremely well connected and respected and I believe that this is because he can always be relied upon to do what he says he will do. Lester is an asset to any business and a trusted and inspirational leader, well liked by all who work with him.

Lester , was an outstanding asset to Magpie , with a first class desire to succeed , an excellent work ethic and super relationship management skills . The one stand out aspect of Lester's skills was his ability to get his prospects as coaches , in order to help him navigate the sales process more effectively . He was a pleasure to work with , and if were hiring a senior sales resource or GM in Malaysia , Lester would be very much a strong consideration
