In his leadership position at Canonical, he was consistently able to focus on what was important, ignore that which wasn't. Where others might ignore or waffle around a difficult issue, Elliot would speak—respectfully, constructively, humbly—directly to it.

He joined the company when the product, a complex Rails app, was close to its alpha launch. He learned quickly all about the current status, technology stack, challenges and solution.
