“I had been working with Shafie for two years on a big software implementation project. Shafie was a leader of migration of funds to a new platform; he was responsible for business & gap analysis, defining requirements and testing. I can absolutely recommend Shafie for a project lead or business analyst role. He has a strong knowledge of fund accounting, but his major strength is the ability to deal with people. Even in conflict situations he remains very polite, constructive and patient; his positive attitude leads to very good project results. I hope to work with him again in future!”
