Throughout the very effective time Adam spent with us in Australia, working as part of our team, to improve the efficacy of our Human Resources function, his conduct was exemplary. In particular, as few visitors to this country seem to realise, for acceptance, they must demonstrate personal characteristics that are very particular; expert knowledge of their professional area, ability to apply it to Australian conditions and to do so with authority based on the efficacy of what they propose rather than their rank. Adam, on the basis of his time, with us is, quite simply, a model to which others might aspire but rarely achieve his level of performance. A hugely talented consultant!
