Upbeat personality and engaging personal style enable Guy to interact effectively with Officials, Clients and staff. He is very well organized and keeps track of the details necessary to coordinate market research and make investment decisions accordingly. Guy takes initiative to go beyond the expected parameters to deliver all the intangibles that lead to success in doing business in Africa.
