He possess expertise in cross functional team leadership, organizational development, strategic planning, strategy, management and 30 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Jon and I worked together in Atlassian. During that time I was leading and engineering team and Jon was a productivity and enablement manager. We worked together in the context of some of the training programs he was organizing as well as on a day-to-day “could you please help me with this problem I have” basis. My experience prior to Atlassian came primarily from leading a small company and navigating the numerous organizational and political complexities of a corporation was often a challenge to me. This is where Jon’s help was invaluable to me. Jon possesses this unique combination of the experience of a seasoned industry manager, the perceptiveness to exactly understand other people’s concerns and difficulties, and the ability to communicate proposals for solutions in a no-bullshit and yet sensitive way. Contrary to others in similar positions who would basically answer my questions with verbatim recital of company policy, Jon was always able to understand where I am coming from, what was it that was frustrating or hampering me and offer ideas about how to solve the problem Every time I went seeking advice from him, I came out of the conversation elated, all my doubts gone, thinking that Yes! This was exactly what I needed to do! I have rarely come across a similar set of qualities and I am quite confident that he would be a precious asset to any organization he is ever part of.", "While I only worked with Jonathan for a short time, I found him to be a thought leader and someone that added a lot of value to the biggest revenue producing organization in Absolute. I would strong recommend him for a leadership/change agent role in a heartbeat. He's a true asset to any organization.", and "I have had the opportunity to interact with Jonathan on a regular basis over the past few years. He is highly motivated, bold, creative and intelligent. He is well read and has a unique ability to select and apply the appropriate models to the task or challenge at hand which enables quickly getting to the solution. He has a keen understanding of business and effectively challenges the status quo in his efforts to grow and improve the business. He is also very effective in understanding the motivations of others and being able to provide guidance and insights on how to move forward in a variety of situations. I definitely learned and benefited from working with Jonathan."
