Colleagues describe him as "I have been working with Patrick since 2001, when he was Logistics Manager of Diebold Germany. Later Patrick joined Diebold EMEA Logistics as Regional Logistics Manager for Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Poland, UK and Switzerland. Over the years we had worked together in different logistics projects for specific customers. I have learned, that Patrick is taking his work seriously and going deep into issues to see the real problem behind facade. In problem solving, Patrick analyzes possible solutions effectively and then works out the best solution for the customer and also for the company. He does not hesitate to call me or other colleagues, if he needs our assistance immediately. One of Patrick’s strongest skills is to keep stock levels in good balance with having right parts in stock and keeping total stock value low. Often I find Patrick working also after hours, if there are important projects going on or open issues need his immediate assistance. Patrick has also good social and communication skills with a touch of humor, which helped us to compete tough problems and deadlines easier. All of this makes him a good colleague and value for the company he's working for. I can recommend Patrick and his work without any doubts. "
