Upper management normally would like to give opportunities to its existing employees beginning with a green belt at the execution level, a black belt professional for problem solving level and a master black belt at the uppermost position.

LinkedIn Recommendation:
 Carl Madden - Search Engine Marketing Consultant at Osato Tree - There are many times I have been stuck on something, but now I that I am working with Teo Graca, I know I can get unstuck quickly. He has a way of getting at the meat of the solution to any problem when it comes to business planning. I really don't know anyone with such a well rounded skill set. I think that is what makes it possible for him to do what he does. I highly recommend Teo and Net-Teams! - March 15, 2012, Carl was Teo's client |
