I think the best way to begin a recommendation for Ziad Elawar is to say that his skills, abilities and knowledge are the future of the IT industry. I have had the pleasure of working with Ziad as a Manager and as a colleague. His knowledge of outreach his ability to connect with key players in any given task is unmatched. He is a great Manager, colleague and as well as a team player, I had the pleasure of working on the same project with him and he leads by example. He does his job with passion and with 100% dedication. During projects, he always performs QA and testing. Finds the issues, gives the best practices not to solve only but also provides techniques to solve the issues. Honestly, I don’t think that he needs a recommendation. His work and contributions as a Manager in the IT industry speak far more to his credibility that I can. I recommend Ziad Elawar for your company as IT service Management or any Management position.
