“I collaborated with Dilsharn on some digital transformation projects and it was super easy to work with him. His business acumen is his strong suit and he is probably the most helpful & technologically-adept person I have crossed paths with in my career to date. He is naturally a team player and an ardent leader. When we worked together I noticed he was a natural at business analysis and understanding client needs - one of the tougher areas to excel in. His marketing skills were also on full display as we tackled client requirements together. I have been in touch with Dilsharn since then and in that time I have generally been aware of his business development techniques to canvass a wide array of clients in many verticals.”
