Colleagues describe him as "I worked with Art for 6 years at Software AG both as an engineer on the product team he was leading and later on as a peer manager in the same organization. He is hard working and takes his job responsibilities very seriously. One of his best qualities is that he achieves his organization's goals through establishing good relationship with his team and between the different team members. His colleagues trust and respect him, while his team loves him. Art has vast experience leading large multinational teams and managing software products that make millions of revenue every year. He is a leader that can work under stress and keeps his cool in tough situations. He has great personality and finds a way to work well with all sorts of people - a quality that's a must-have for every manager, but in reality not that many people have. Above all he's a good friend and I'd readily jump at any opportunity to work with him again." and "Art is the kind of technical leader that every organization must value. Art excels at the full array of skills and personal attributes essential to the success of any team. He is an expert in his field, and thus can lead the critical design effort, guide the critical support issue towards prompt resolution, and mentor the junior members of his team. Art is always jovial, supportive, helpful, and focused; he makes collaboration, for his direct team-mates and for the many teams he interacts with in today's distributed and hyper-collaborative workplace, a true pleasure. Art is also a leader who doesn't shy away from change, and that's the key to survival in the face of constant disruption. Art was chosen, along with myself and the strongest representatives from each of our locations, to lead the transition to Scrum, Agile, and Lean methodologies. Together, we mastered the techniques and carried them to our respective teams for a successful transformation of SoftwareAG which remains operative today.
