Colleagues describe him as "After working more than a year with Leonard I’m happy to write this recommendation to a man who deserves much more than just words. Leonard is a phenomenal manager, leader, mentor and friend. I will do my best to unpack this as much as I can. Leonard has an incredible way with people, he genuinely listens to people around him on all levels. Leonard usually has the solutions but he wants the team to engage and find the solution themselves or come up with a better one! Leonard truly empowers those around him, giving them every opportunity to do good, improve and sometimes fail because I believe he understands that building character, confidence and resilience takes time and requires to sometimes fall flat. The beautiful thing is that Leonard will be there to pick you up and push you forward to greater heights, that is the kind of man he is, a natural leader that will connect with everyone around and take them all on a wonderful journey! On a technical side, he has a surprising amount of knowledge as a backend developer in his past and knows quite a bit about security architecture so he never shies away from a technical discussion and enjoys finding new and better solutions along the way. His business sense is impeccable, the time to market and the ever elusive true MVP of a product is something he can truly put a finger on and push till it’s out there, gathering the crucial data in order to become a full product. Leonard has inspired me on many occasions and I’ve personally seen him turn people around in difficult situations. He’s able to reach people who others can’t find common ground with and he gets results. I’m honored and privileged to have had the opportunity to work under his leadership and I can only hope that our paths cross again someday."
