In particular, I was impressed with a key decision he made to split a single project into multiple projects. While it put pressure on the project team and added even more responsibilities to his already full plate, it was the correct strategic decision for the business. It would have been easier for him to follow the original strategy. Instead, he followed what he believed to be the correct business decision, and I have always respected that."
