He has an outstanding ability to dynamically lead (alongside not from the front) multi-skilled teams, through complex project (intervention) design and implementation. His approach demonstrates a balance of both high technical competency - across wide arenas of climate change and development - as well as extremely high EQ. Blaise is a key asset to any high-performing team, working in known and unknown areas of practice. In the teams I have worked with him in, he quickly becomes the cornerstone of seamless teamwork, getting the best out of his teammates by allowing for the collective surfacing and refinement of ideas through a low-ego, outcomes focussed approach. He is also extremely well networked, with colleagues clearly holding him in high esteem." and "I had the pleasure of working with Blaise Dobson on the Southern Africa Climate Finance Partnership and Sustainable Manufacturing and Environmental Pollution programmes at SouthSouthNorth for nearly three years. Blaise sets the benchmark with his exceptional leadership and interpersonal skills. He goes out of his way to ensure the well-being of his team members, and is professional, polite and hardworking. Blaise is always considerate of people's time, empathetic, compassionate with excellent mediator skills, and makes all team members feel valued and important. Blaise has remarkable decision-making abilities. He is able to take in the available information, listen to all inputs, and find innovative and effective solutions with his strong analytical and problem-solving skills. In my time at SouthSouthNorth, Blaise took on several high-level roles at once and had an incredible ability to multitask and calmly achieve all targets and goals to the highest standard, while ensuring the wellbeing of team members and proactively helping anyone where possible. I feel very fortunate to have worked with Blaise as I have learnt so much, especially to do with what makes a good leader and team member, work ethic and organisation skills, and how to react to high-stress and challenging situations. I would highly recommend Blaise for any position or future endeavour. He is passionate about the climate change, sustainability and environmental fields and has a positive disposition, which resonates through the team. He has a rare combination of exceptional practical and technical skills, creativity and thinking outside of the box, and exemplary interpersonal skills. It has been an absolute pleasure working with and getting to know Blaise over the years."
