Commentary

Michael is personable and has the ability to act under pressure while

keeping a clear head. He's a good team player with ability to lead by

example. He has excellent guest relation and interpersonal skills, is hard-

working with a self-motivating work ethic. He has very good numeric,

administrative, organisational and communication skills with a sense of

humour. He is professional and flexible, yet still attains end

user/customer satisfaction focused with a 'hands on approach' and people

focused style.

Michael is ideally seeking a challenging role (General Manager /

Hospitality Management / Facilities Management / Director of Operations

F&B, logistics related, catering) that leverages his core competencies and

experience. This would include considering remote sites/locations in any of

the developing markets.
