Abdourahmane DIALLO - MI,B.S

I am recommending Swasti for any other PM role she might undertake in the future. I got to work with her closely as a Project Manager when I and some colleagues had to onboard her as a new Project Manager. She was able to understand the culture quickly at Humber and how important it was for her to take over her new role as a Project Manager because there were many projects at risk. Keeping consensus in the team, initiating relationships with key stakeholders, and managing those relationships, she was able to handle those items but mostly, got the projects delivered on time. Worked closely with her for one year, she was able to lead all the concurrent projects within the timelines allocated and she was able to manage her team's strengths and weaknesses to allow everyone to succeed. For any reference, I can be reached on linkedIn.

She has been a key contributor to several innovative projects launched by our program. She is a calm, conscientious and committed individual who can always be relied on to deliver exceptional results. Swasti’s technical knowledge, her ability to quickly grasp complex concepts and to work with a diverse team are key tenets of her success in the workplace. Her contribution to this Project Management Postgraduate program will be recognized for years to come.
