I first met Manoj when we both worked at BT and he is truly a remarkable individual. He is able to take large and complex situations (technical and non-technical), make sense of the vast amount of information, pull together a strategy that is coherent and finally explain it in bite-size chunks that are easily understood. Also one who keeps the final solution and benefits in mind as he works through and implements the agreed plan. Great professional to turn to when you need some clarity and get things done.
