F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Global Head of Architecture Council



“I worked with Andreas Kistner on a global project that covered Commercial Operations in 5 major regions including Latin America, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa and Western Europe. I was very impressed with Andreas ability to work with the business and his clear understanding of their challenges and business drivers. He is excellent at using Information Technology (IT) to provide solutions that enabled the business and gave them competitive advantage.

Andreas is well respected by all those that had the opportunity to work with him. His excellent business ethics, teamwork and hard work made him an example for all of us to follow.

I enjoyed working with Andreas on this project and look forward to working with him on many others.” December 16, 2011

Munther Megdadi, Director, Enterprise Architecture, Genentech & Roche Pharma

“I have had the pleasure and privilege of working with Andreas for nearly two years. In all this time, he has become a trusted friend and go-to person. Andreas is very knowledgeable, dependable, trust-worthy, and an extremely dedicated employee and person. His unselfish dedication to meet commitments and assist co-workers and business partners is unmatched! He is a strong Architect and IT Strategist. Andreas has a remarkable attitude and ability to make the best of any situation. It is truly an honor to work with him on a regular basis.” December 8, 2011

Mustaq Kazi , Principal Architect, Genentech


“I had the opportunity to work with Andreas in preparation for a pharma conference panel on mobile strategies and was in awe of his ability to translate complex technology advances into meaningful (and practical) opportunities. He has the rare qualities of being an inspiring innovator and experienced implementor with a passion for delivering customer value. Thanks Andreas for the opportunity to work with you and your contributions to educating all of us on your experiences. !” December 6, 2011

Chad Daugherty,  Global Customer Engagement Consultant, Eli Lilly and Company


“Andreas is a very colorful person. It's not often when you find somebody who on one hand understand technology and can come up with a coherent architecture and at the same time "gets" the business and the environment around. But his interests are not limited to IT and when working with him you will soon find out how broad his horizons are and how much experience he has on many fronts. But great architecture is worthless when it's not implemented. What sets Andreas apart from the crowd is his quite remarkable ability to get things done in the big corpo world. Combining his charming personality and great intellect he skillfully manages to overcome resistance and roadblocks that could stop most of the others.” May 14, 2011

Krzystof Dabrowski, Head of Software Development, F.Hoffman-La Roche


“I had the opportunity to work together with Andreas in different roles. It was always a pleasure. He is always pragmatic, highly focus and extremely well organized. No matter how late and complex any issues will arise, you can be sure that he will look for the best solution in place. I am always impressed about his extensive knowledge related latest IT trends and business needs. Colleagues and customers trust him. I loved to discuss with him controversial topics, because his input was always an enrichment of the result. Andreas is very supportive, friendly and stays calm in complex situations. He can convince customers, motivate teams and develop so the best solution. You can be sure with him on board you will have the committed partner and your initiative can be only a success.” December 13, 2010

Gabriele Witt, Head Global PGC Project Management Office, Hoffmann-La Roche

“Andreas isn’t the usual gifted project / program manager or senior system architect. His combination of IQ/EQ, experience and dedication makes him the “got to have” team member for critical/challenging projects. For example he supported me big times when I led a Social Media company wide task force whilst in parallel acting as the mastermind to determine our mobility strategy. This flexibility paired with his authentic leadership style makes him so special and valuable.” September 6, 2010
Werner Boeing, Global Function Head Informatics - Commercial Operations and Centre of Shared Services

“Apart from his background and vast knowledge of latest IT trends, I have got to know Andreas to be a project manager with all his heart. I have worked with him on an international social media project that involved coordinating very diverse stakeholders from around the world. He has been instrumental in keeping the project on time and the team connected, while injecting an extra bit of creativity and humor in everything he does. He is extremely well organized and no matter how late and complex any issues arose, he always delivered against the milestones and timelines. I value his can-do attitude and expertise in all things relating to new web technologies, and would always be happy to have him on future projects again.”
Sabine Kostevc, Head of Corporate Internet and Social Media, Roche
 
“Andreas is one of the IT professionals I have the chance of meeting with the broadest and deepest understanding of both Business and Informatics worlds.
