John and I have worked closely together over the last year on the Cloud Program at Cenovus. His work on the Program has been consistently excellent. John does an incredible job of managing expectations to insure that the desired outcomes are achieved particularly important on an initiative with a lot of change as this Program has been.
Andrea Seabrook
John is able to manage multiple streams of work in a complex environment he ensured that all streams delivered as planned. He raised issues and concerns appropriately, managed risks and developed modified and delivered plans that ensured the team met its objectives. I would most definitely recommend him for large complex program roles and would consider myself lucky to have the opportunity to work with him again!
