NAME_1 has given the impression of a very committed Senior Manager. He is well established in the delivery market and is doing well from an operational and delivery approach. However, there are some areas of development separating NAME_1 from Director position at the moment:
- NAME_1 needs to be more strategic than tactical in his responses, focus less on engagement details, and provide a clear direction of what his business strategy is and where it's going instead. NAME_1 did not present a clear business strategic plan to his move to Jeddah market; 
- NAME_1 needs to clearly articulate how his role as a Director going to be different and what new things will he bring in his work in the new role;
- NAME_1 needs to further focus his relationships and widen his Network. When moved to Jeddah, NAME_1 did not reach out or engage to previous clients he had in KSA; 
- NAME_1 needs to work on his communication skills - clearly answer the question asked and be more concise in his replies; 

Overall, NAME_1 might need an additional year of experience to become well rounded for a Director position.
