Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure of working with Anthony for 9 years at Autodesk. Anthony was a huge asset to have on the team. The three traits that stand out most from the time I worked with him are leadership, commitment and willingness to learn. During my time at Autodesk I saw Anthony successfully tackle one challenge after another both in individual contributor and management roles. The technology industry is in constant change both from external pressures as well as internal pressures. Anthony quickly assesses the needs of the organization, develops a strategy for meeting those needs and ensures that his team executes the plan. His leadership ability is demonstrated both by hid ability to deliver and the respect he has garnered from his team, peers and management. Anthony is committed to continuous improvement and encourages the like from his team. He keeps abreast of the latest technology and finds innovative ways to leverage the technology, and ensures his team is trained to deliver and support the needs of the organization. Anthony’s commitment to continuous improvement and lifelong learning coupled with his leadership skills position him well to help any organization. " and "Anthony is an exemplary leader who consistently demonstrates excellent judgment and has earned his reputation as the expert to consult on any Finance data related challenges. Anthony reported to me for four years in his role as leader of the Finance Business Intelligence team. He is a natural problem solver who looks for creative yet practical ways to address business challenges. As Autodesk transformed from a perpetual software model to a subscription business Finance needed to very quickly provide new metrics such as subscription rates and annual recurring revenue which were not captured in our existing systems. Anthony was integral in devising a strategy to rapidly provide the data. He then led the team in the implementation of dynamic dashboards which soon became the “go-to” place for finance, sales and marketing leaders to get the data they needed to drive strategic business decisions. His keen understanding of business stakeholders’ needs combined with BI expertise and collaboration skills drove the success of the dashboards. His ability to proactively discern what customers needed and start working towards those needs before they even asked ensured that the dashboards remained relevant and scaled as the subscription volume grew. What is doubly impressive is that while his team was working incredibly hard to make this all happen he drove a huge increase in employee engagement. Anthony is an outstanding leader who truly cares about the individuals on his team. He goes the extra mile to really understand what motivates them and ensure that their work is meaningful by tying it directly to their professional development goals and the goals of the company. Under his leadership his team became a model for best-in-class employee engagement. Because of his deep understanding of our business models, data, processes and technology, I and others often consulted him for advice beyond the specific scope of his role. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Anthony again and strongly recommend him for any business intelligence leadership position."
