His ability to 'make numbers talk' always astonished me! Give him an excel sheet and he will tell you something (which is true but not obvious) about the facts behind the numbers. I appreciated his help quite a lot, because simply looking at the figures, he has always been able to suggest me what should be done in order to improve my performance. Ho avuto il piacere di lavorare con Francesco alcuni anni fa. La sua abilità nel 'far parlare i numeri' è sempre stata stupefacente! Dategli un foglio di Excel e lui vi dirà qualcosa (che è vera ma non evidente) a proposito dei fatti che stanno dietro a quei numeri. Il suo aiuto è stato fondamentale, perchè è sempre stato in grado di suggerirmi, tramite le sue analisi dei numeri, cosa fare per miglirare la mia performance."
