ivata = collaboration
pass that knowledge on
Dear Colin,
I just want to thank you for the fantastic job you did for me
and my team at Dresdner Bank.
Your depth of knowledge was vital for us to get the job done.
What's even more important, however, is you're someone who can
pass that knowledge on. The whole team grew through the new
skills you brought. You showed us how to use the tools we
developed, and make the most of the systems we already had in
place.
You talked with business users on their level, and motivated the
software guys in a language they understand. You were the bridge
between the two.
The project could not have been so successful without you.
With many thanks,
ph
