“Tony was my boss at Oracle Corp., where his leadership, hands-on approaches to program management, communication, and creative ideas always motivated our team. He led by example, not just words. I spent 4 years working for Tony. In those years, I was able to observe and learn from his leadership style and hands-on approach to driving large-scale IT programs. As head of his consulting practice, his example was one of results-driven, high-integrity, hard work, preparation, hands-on, and high energy. It was well known within the region that for the most risky, strategic, and large-scale client IT initiatives, our management would go to him for leadership, architecture, strategy and planning, and program leadership. He was also exceptional at engagement management and executive leadership. His project crisis management and success reputation was also well known. His example was important to furthering my own personal growth as an IT professional and executive. I highly recommend Tony for anyone looking for senior leader to drive IT Strategy and Roadmap design, or planning and executing large-scale / complex programs, or turning around troubled projects, or to provide executive leadership. ”
