Salman Saleem - the process expert- has a professional attitude blended with a humble and outwitting nature. In my short tenure at Telenor Pakistan, I found him very logical, meticulous and adept at his work. While working with him, I learned a great deal of knowledge about the business domain. As a mentor, He has an amazing quality to impart information about the organization’s values, works and processes. He is technically very capable and carries excellent soft skills. Be it conversing with the technology team or gathering requirements from clients I always found him maintain his composure. He is a talented and creative individual, always keen to learn and improve his skill set. He bags the title of the only CCBA in Pakistan. He is a 'must-have' resource for any organization. I wish him luck for all his future endeavors.
