Testimonials

“It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Tim (Game Counsel Founder). Few people have the opportunity to work to a C-level manager who is also a coach and mentor—but I did when I worked with Tim. I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with him, collaborating on several clients and I was particularly impressed by Tim’s ability to handle even the toughest clients and situations-effortlessly. That skill often takes years to develop among Business Development service professionals, but it seemed to come perfectly naturally to him. I’ve always been in awe of his ability to command a meeting and get people on board with ideas—even people who were initially on completely different pages. He earns my highest recommendation.”

“I worked with Viki (Game Counsel Director) for quite some time and always found her to be efficient, organised and helpful. She clearly knows her stuff and is often pro-active in anticipating potential issues and resolving them before they even arise! Viki is a good communicator, very approachable and a pleasure to work with. She is highly regarded in her current role and would be an asset to any team!”

“Tim is a gifted leader, with extraordinary business acumen, and a quite frankly remarkable work ethic. I had the pleasure to work under Tim he developed the strategy, sales, and skills in others that led to a complete transformation of the department, and of the company as a whole. His knowledge of the industry, especially with regards to external game development, is second-to-none, and a source from which he is always willing to share. Simply put, I (and many others) would not have developed even half the skills in our arsenal if it were not for Tim’s selfless dedication to the role, and his team. And what’s that? To top it all off, he has a great sense of humour? Darn.”

“Tim has hitherto been the best manager that I’ve been privileged to have thus far in my career. Tim is the person who constantly has your back, enables your development, and never loses sight of the goals that have to be achieved. He has a deep knowledge of the gaming industry and has been a truly great mentor. He’s the secret weapon that any company would be lucky to wield!”
