Samji and I were State Managers for TPG, NSW & ACT respectively. I worked very closely with Samji in driving TPG to new heights. Samji is a brilliant sales leader, and has great vision on how to change and grow a business. I saw Samji take parts of the business and grow them 10 fold; Samji is well respected by his staff and peers and known for his ethical & authentic leadership. An overall high achiever and a great colleague.
