“I worked with Norman in 1995-96 during the Canada World Youth program between Hungary and British Columbia. He was the most mature, hardworking and committed of all 6 project leaders, providing mentoring, support and fantastic leadership to all project leaders, Hungarian and Canadian alike. I truly enjoyed working with Norman: we share the same high professional standards and he remained through all these years an inspiration and a role model for me. We are not only friends but now we are also business partners: he is the international consultant in my new company, Capilano Consulting, whose name was also inspired by our walk over the Capilano Suspension Bridge. He brings fresh, new ideas and a unique perspective to our business problems.”
