  Charles expanded our conceptual grasp of critical IT architecture issues at a time when few members of the IT management team realised (let alone understood) the importance of principled ICT infrastructure and systems design.

  I met Charles at a Togaf conference in Portugal & I was impressed with his presentation. Working with him in the EA practice at LCH.C was a pleasure. He certainly has a deep understanding of Enterprise Architecture & he is very pleasant to work with. Charles is a thorough and well qualified architec

  t who produces superior results. I would be pleased to have opportunity to work with him in the future.

  Charles is one of those rare individuals who combine the abilities to develop brand new concepts, to assimilate, combine and reinforce those concepts proposed by others and, significantly, to apply depth and rigour to their use in practical situations. As such, his contribution to the success of Ent

  erprise Architecture both in theory and practice was profound.

  I had the pleasure of working with Charles on the IT Strategy & Architecture Team at Catlin Group. Charles clearly has an encyclopaedic knowledge of Enterprise Architecture theory, practice and tools, and of software development in general. This, coupled with a highly proactive and pragmatic approac

  h and good skills in managing relationships at all levels, meant that, although he was with us for only a few months, he delivered real value and has left a significant legacy. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Charles for any position in the field.

  Charles has helped to push forward the adoption of the Enterprise Unified Process (EUP) in organizations. A critical success factor in software process improvement (SPI) is to hire experienced mentors such as Charles.

  I worked closely with Charles and found him to be professional in his approach, amicable, and easy to work with, but nevertheless prepared to offer constructive criticism where considered appropriate. He is a strong proponent of iterative development and was always keen to share his knowledge, views

  , and experience on this and other subjects. He was also eager to capture knowledge in documentation, and to underpin theory with practical implementation and hands-on involvement.

  As well as being a very competant Technical Architect with a wide ranging and up to date knowledge of technical solutions Charles is tenacious and able to work at a low level of detail in defining what needs to be done to ensure a successful outcome. Always responsive when asked for his input, even

  at short notice, Charles became a key member of the Programme team whose advice was always worth seeking on on issues of technical delivery and project management.
