"I worked with Adrian in the IT Digital Team. The 1st thing about him that comes in mind is "star of the week". Why so? Because he proved himself to be a skilled professional (both technical and soft) with expertise in analysis and project management. At the begining Adrian had to manage a difficult context. Thanks to his determination, excelent stakeholder engagement skills, ability to administrate and prioritize tasks, meeting mission critical deadlines and KPIs, great communication, proactivity and practical sense, the roadmap delivery progress 2021 jumped from low to the sky.
