Amin Nazifi is a Senior Lecturer in Marketing at University of Birmingham. Colleagues describe him as "It was a great pleasure to study and work with Amin in several projects at ESCP Europe where he proved to be a highly analytical problem solver and a creative thinker. He is very dedicated and has the ability to bring projects to a higher level. Furthermore, he is a friendly individual and works well within a group. His "quick learning" aptitude and "can do" attitude will make him an incredible asset to any organization." and "Amin Nazifi was most definitely one of the star students in Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok. A master in the elusive art of academic rhetoric, innovative presentations and a gifted leader, Amin also stood out from the crowd due to his truly international character. When it came to mixing with other communities – be in Americans, Europeans, Thais, Chinese, Indians or Afghans, Amin was a natural. This ability to converse in English, French and Arabic, of course, only helped his cause. Amin’s enthusiasm for work is viral and his ability to see things beyond the obvious is remarkable. Business consulting is a field he has always been passionate about, and I have no doubt whatsoever, that when he finally hangs his shoes a few decades from now, he would have made a mark for himself as a shining star in that industry."
