1. Tell us about your job in a sentence

2. What does your secretary think about you?
Antony begins every task with careful consideration of all aspects of the project at hand and this is the one thing that enables him (and his team) to prepare extremely well and be confident for every project undertaken by the company under his leadership. Also, his vast experience about the industry is remarkable… (this is what his secretary writes)

Identifying with the thought of ‘let’s uncomplicate’ and walking the talk as an organisation.
4. And the most embarrassing?
Nothing as such, I can remember.

No. Not at all.

No.
14. What do you hate the most at work?
In some cases when I had to deal with unethical behaviour of individuals.
