Testimonials

I had a professional relationship with George from my days of little beginnings and great exploits at eTranzact International Plc for over 10 years. He was a boss (as I fondly call him) indeed. He commanded a lot of respect from me because of his humility, focus, management style and influential leadership. I relish the opportunity of working with him and will gladly embrace future engagements. Any institution/organization that have him in its ranks possesses a rare gem and a true professional.
