Recommendations
Kevin is a brilliant manager. He was my client before joining my team. At that time, I was impressed by his organizational talent, result oriented approach and great communication skills. When he joined the Amadeus Delivery team, he did consultancy for cytric resellers. Based on his deep knowledge of the domain, he was a valuable team member, pro-active, identifying and proposing solutions and always client oriented. In few words, Kevin is committed, trustworthy and reliable. I give him my full recommendation.
