Colleagues describe him as "John was instrumental in helping me turn around a very difficult project; his rare combination of strategic business thinking, deep technical knowledge in web service architecture, and soft skills were all instrumental in creating successful project outcomes. At the time, he was the Principal Consultant and Managing Director at the Seattle location of his consulting firm, allowing him to also recruit and hire some talented software developers to augment our project team. John is a triple threat in technology leadership: strategic business savvy, deep technical experience, and the ability to lead and influence people at many levels of an organization.", "It was a pleasure working closely with John to help scale Amazon Mechanical Turk. In addition to his calmness and composure under pressure, John demonstrated many Amazonian leadership principles, most notably Diving Deep (building, managing and analyzing our business metrics), Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit (challenging Sacred Cows and driving growth initiatives), and Customer Obsession (helping to close business with new customers).", and "I've had the opportunity to work with John in two capacities. First as the program Manager for several of our key accounts while he was with Statera, a systems integrator partner of ours - and then as a Product Manager with the AWS Mechanical Turk organization. John sees the big picture and is very good at looking at the data - a key attribute to success at Amazon. John can dive deep into source metrics and build the right story for cause and effect. John deals well with people, and communicates clearly. Given the opportunity again, I would recommend John for a role in any organization that I am a part."
