It was a delight to work with John closely. He was very organized and meticulous with his work. I found his ability to connect with clients, coworkers and seniors quite remarkable. He was able to bring new ideas to the table as well as fresh perspective. His coaching skills to influence the team dynamics caught my attention the most. Above all, he was so reachable and approachable even in a hectic schedule which allowed getting timely inputs and both upstream and downstream communication across the functional teams. He is very energetic and brings enthusiasm to projects and teams. I was very pleased by his leadership and coaching ability. I can say with confidence if John is on your project/team, you have the right wingman.
