He makes fundamental changes that will make a company stronger, more disciplined, and achieve great successful in the long run. His wisdom in business helped many workers not only do better, but more importantly, understand why it is better, and think how to improve it even more. Nelson is not only a great business strategist, manager, but also a great coach. He often held mini-training sessions and explained complex topics in plain English. He encouraged each worker, no matter his or her position in the company, to see the big picture and think how one’s work can contribute to the company’s goals. When he finished his project, he not only left the company in a much better shape than before, but also had built a great team that will carry on the best practices and keep the company grow for a very long time!

Gamco CorporationNelson is a very kind career teacher. He taught me the way to perform my ability, and led me to gain a much more professional value. Sometimes he was very pushing, but I know that’s necessary for doing a good job. I remember one thing he told me: ” It is always busy. If you don’t do it now, It will be always busy as you’re thinking right now.” It was a simple principle but reminded me that everyone should do what they think right away. He can influence people a lot.
He is a coach, a manager, and a business analyst. He built a performance standard in many processes in our company, which is a first step to optimize processes. He is a meticulous person and knows everything comes from a small part. He changed the company to be a much better one and trained the team who can still keep improving and leading the company up.
