I have known Philip van der Watt for more than 13 years. Over the course his employment, he has grown to be one of our top performing managers. I am certain that the skills and abilities he has developed will allow him to excel in any job. Philips’s remarkable talents for business, management, project management, and communication make him uniquely qualified to be an asset for any company. He has managed stressful and complicated projects with high levels of intelligence and understanding: he met every challenge, deadline, and goal presented and tackled every problem with grace and ease. Many of the solutions Philip proposed were insightful and practical, and he showed a remarkable capacity for breaking large issues into manageable segments. His innovative ideas and solutions assisted the company’s footprint in the ATM industry, and he has made valuable contributions in other areas as well. Philip served not only as a useful individual asset to our company, but also as a cooperative and attentive team-player. His actions consistently inspired and motivated our other employees. He understood intuitively when colleagues were confused, lost, or off-track, and brought those individuals back on task without judgment. He was also aware of rifts developing during group projects, and his management skills reunited teams without making either side feel defensive or alienated. In the years that I have known and worked with Philip, I have developed enduring respect for both his work ethic and his problem-solving abilities. I can confidently say that Philip would make a positive and beneficial addition to any company and he has my highest recommendation. Yours Sincerely Michelle de Jager
