Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure of working with Derek for over a year and had the opportunity to manage him during that time. It was clear from the beginning that Derek was a rising star in the management world, and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to recommend him for a managerial position. When I was considering whether to recommend Derek for this role, I asked myself a simple question: "Would I want Derek to be my manager on my best and my worst days?" The answer was an easy and resounding "yes." Derek has all of the qualities that I look for in a manager: he is intelligent, dedicated, and always willing to listen and learn. Once on track to become a manager, Derek soaked up knowledge like I have never seen. He was always eager to learn more and improve his skills, and he took advantage of every opportunity to learn from more experienced leaders. He talked with senior leadership and took their advice to heart, reading the books and materials that they recommended. Any team would be lucky to have Derek as a manager, and I have no doubt that he will continue to excel in this role. He has the drive, the intelligence, and the dedication to succeed, and I can't wait to see where the future takes him. I highly recommend Derek for any managerial position he may be seeking, and I am confident that he will be an asset to any team he joins."
