“One of the things that strikes you on watching Josh at work within Skype is the passion and energy he radiates to his team, and indeed to the business. Without a doubt, his ideas and creative concepts enthused people at various levels throughout the company, encouraged by his open and down to earth approach to leadership. In an environment of change, his energy and enthusiasm needs to be visible to the organisation to ensure continued success and at the time I was working with Skype, that certainly was the case.”
