"Markus was managing a team of project managers and a program management office based in India [between 2015-2018]... Since we were an offshore team, he ensured that as a leader… he was prepared with international mindsets and cultures. It was extremely easy to collaborate with him. As a leader, he provided … professional insights and guidance. He was quick to adapt to change and adopted a smart approach to drive change within our team."

“Markus Kakavis was an MOC Executive and … was involved in the early stages of the program including pre-sales and enablement phase. He paved way in drafting communication plans to properly roll out changes brought about by the possible disruption of developing innovative and user centric services for the client.”
