Colleagues describe him as "Chris is a personification of an ideal leader that every business requires these days and he is a terrific team player. Working with him has brought me an immense pleasure! As we live in unprecedented times, and working from remote locations, Not only he guided my way upon joining Best Buy but he also opened up multiple avenues, opportunities, dialogues and helped me create liaisons with relevant stakeholders that made my work life efficient and comfortable from the get-go. He is an excellent speaker, motivator and always inspired cohorts with his experience and wisdom that drove multiple teams towards success and perfection. Chris's dedication and hard work are second to none and I have always observed Chris give his utmost to the task at hand and will not rest until the issue has been remediated. I loved Chris's sociable side too. He is one fun loving mate to hang out with! He helps team mates get together on Friday evenings, infuses it with fun loving activities and helps cohorts to decompress after long busy days/weeks. And I reckon amalgamation of these attributes makes Chris a phenomenal leader and I wish him all the best for upcoming adventures. I hope my path would cross again with Chris, so I can work with him again, and enjoy his company a bit more! Thanks Chris for everything and I wish you all the best, mate!", "I've worked for Chris for 7 years. Since he became our lead, we saw our tech stack and work environments rapidly evolve into a modern realm, with newest tools to work with and faster turnarounds in production releases. Chris brought to the table, bleeding edge tech, game changing concepts and best practices, and an admirable leadership that worked wonders in the organization. Chris brought automation to operation's mindset and inspired us all to explore newer tools to help with our efforts in it such as Jenkins, Ansible and Terraform. He is always on the lookout for what's clicks in the industry, and helps onboard those which matter, in our organization (like SLA/SLO/SLI concepts in SRE which has become a standard in BestBuy in no time, and GitOps, to list a couple from a long list). One of the best things about working with Chris is the way he always encourages us to bring the best version of ourselves. He is always open to hear from his teammates, engages with both onshore and offshore teams on a regular basis and communicates the happenings and roadmaps to all the teams making sure no one is out of the loop. He is the go-to leader of operations for higher management and other business service lines alike. I've seen his technical prowess and level-headedness saving the day countless times. The way he lead some of the biggest sales events set examples for a lot of followers like me to watch and learn. And the pace with which he climbed up from being a lead to a manager to a director speaks volumes of his capability to excel. It has been an absolute marvel watching you soar high, Chris and I wish you all the very best!", and "I have worked with Chris very closely while leading the performance testing effort at Best Buy Canada. It was during this project that I realized Chris is absolutely integral to Best Buy because of the following: Leadership Skills, Humility and Technical Knowledge."
