“I've been working alongside with and as the direct manager of Damian for five years, and have on numerous occasions been impressed by his maturity, leadership skills and ability to handle change and ambiguity. Probably the largest piece of evidence of this is the closure of the site Damian was the MD for. Due to business conditions, we had to make the difficult decision to close this site, and Damian was appointed to lead the entire shutdown. This was by no measure an easy task - working all the employee related issues from communication through layoffs, keeping the factory output and service levels upheld, planning and managing all the practical aspects of closing down a site including moving and consolidating the operations to another site in Europe - and all this while Damian himself unfortunately also being impacted by the close. Not a single time did I have reason to be nothing but fully satisfied with not only Damian's work effort during this project, but also his positive "can do" mindset. This project obviously contained loads of ambiguity, tough discussions and management of emotions, and Damian really proved to the whole organization why he is such a strong leader. I also want to comment on the time when I was a peer to Damian, in a role where I ran a similar site to the one Damian was in charge for. Damian always was very helpful and open to contribute with his wide knowledge and experience anytime I had a question or struggled with something. I found Damian to be warm, inviting and always looking for the win-win solution for the greater good of the organization. I can very highly recommend Damian for any type of leadership role where change management, efficiency improvements and high levels of ambiguity are needed.”
