This was in large part due to Bob's incredible ability to apply his design background to all parts of a business. He is an extremely talented industrial designer, but it is his business savvy, his outsized work ethic and his commitment to a vision and strategy that set him apart. Bob is, simply put, one of those people who makes everyone around him better. Further, he is a person of action and getting results. Whether it is a project, a business model, a strategy or vision, if you have an audacious goal to achieve, I haven't worked with anyone in my career who would be better suited to advance that cause." and "I worked with Bob for 3 years as we were building the Coalesse’s brand to become global and enter the B2C channel. Bob is one of the most inspirational creative director and VP of Design I have been fortunate to work with. He is a strong and visionary creative lead, who sets the bar really high. He made the Coalesse’s brand grew through his capability to attract and keep intellectually engaged the most famous designers and influencers in the world. Internally, he inspired the cross-functional teams through the excellence he always wanted to reach. He is globally sensitive and has the talent to create a global offering. What is very unique about Bob is his capability to manage a brand holistically from the vision to an extreme attention to details in the implementation. I would recommend Bob for any brand that seeks to differentiate in a fast-paced, design-driven and global environment."
