Ahmad Bhinder
Yasir was one person in PTA I relied the most on, and I believe he has a long list of people like me. He is excellent in his work, to the extent that he is capable of handling all HR and personal matters of a fairly large organization single handedly. I saw him staying extremely calm yet very vigilant and responsive in a couple of real crisis times for the organization. He enjoys a very appropriate blend of interpersonal and professional characteristics in his personality. I wish him best of luck for his career and his life.
