These strengths were also on display throughout the MBA classes that I shared with Simon, where his ability to break down the complexity into the key elements and then establish a prioritized-structured work plan were highly valued.", "Simon and I worked together for 2 years at Fraedom. He truly understands and lives by the 'consultant' selling style. Working under Simon for 18 months, his support and knowledge sharing of his experience truly allowed me to take my relationships with my clients to the next level. This of course resulting in increased upselling of products and deeper understanding of these clients businesses. With this deeper understanding came a deeper trust. Simon is clear and direct in how he approaches any situation and will challenge clients and employees on their thinking. Personally Simon was a pleasure to work for, fun, creative, and hard working. I would recommend Simon to any employer, and if you are considering a product Simon is selling, to hear what he has to say. It might just be the best decision you ever make.", and "I met Simon at AGSM and we became good friends quickly. He's an amazing out-of-the-box thinker and approaches problems from a unique perspective. We were in many assignment groups together and he always pulled more than his weight, plus took the initiative and lead when needed. I highly recommend working with him in any corporate or academic project situation. Jeff"
