He has remarkable depth and breadth of knowledge and understanding of not only the telecommunications industry but many more areas, which he's often able to call upon to allow cross comparisons and learnings to be shared between industries. His business strategy and general business skills will serve him well in any sector he chooses to work in. Robert demonstrated on numerous occasions the ability to work on a range of activities from providing thought leadership through to producing tangible deliverables required to successfully complete a project. Robert is able to provide strategic insight and an execution plan that is essential for any company to succeed. . An example that I can cite is where Robert took a leading role in the acquisition of a small silicon valley based start up on behalf of Telefonica O2. Robert's role was to work on a diverse number of tasks that included valuation of the company through to the strategy to be adopted for integrating the new company. Robert was also responsible for engaging others to aid the delivery of the project, which he successfully achieved. Robert is able to digest an immense amount of information and make sense of the data to provide appropriate solutions to any challenge. He can present extremely complex information in a beautifully simple and digestible form that ensures only the pertinent points are discussed.The ability to digest and output information in this manner is a very rare skill indeed that provides a laser focus on the problem in hand and filters out the noise. Robert also has an amazing capability to grasp any new subject matter and develop his thinking in this area. His openess and willingness to take on new thinking and new ways of doing things ensures that Robert is continually developing and staying current. However Robert doesn't blindly take on new things but rather will challenge and adapt where required to ensure we arrive at the right solution appropriate to the situation and context. Robert's personality is also a powerful tool for getting the job done as he's able to engage at all levels within the company from the very top at board level down to the most junior roles. Robert is extremely professional and very likeable making working with him a real pleasure. Robert's one of the few people I know who can tackle very thorny and complex subjects that require strong people management skills. He'll ensure the right people are involved and pulling in the same direction. I have yet to find something that Robert can't put his mind to and deliver! I'd recommend Robert without hesitation for any number of roles and anyone fortunate enough to hire him would soon see why."
