PixelPlex

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of a company that built a browser extension that allows users to browse and transact in Web3 safely. We check transactions for vulnerabilities and detect phishing scams, poison attacks, and all sorts of assaults.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We needed their team’s blockchain development expertise to build our solution.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PixelPlex has provided cybersecurity and blockchain consultancy and development services for us. They’ve used a full stack Solidity language for the smart contract. For the custom builds, they’ve used a Go language.

We’ve built and launched custom nodes as our own testing environment, so we can execute transactions in those nodes by ourselves to meet our goals.

What is the team composition?

There are 25–30 PixelPlex teammates working on the project. We have blockchain and machine learning specialists, front- and backend developers, QA engineers, designers, business analysts, and technology leads.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent approximately $600,000–$800,000 so far, but we’ll get to $1 million soon.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in June 2022, and our engagement is ongoing.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

We had worked with them before this project. They were originally recommended to us.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Thanks to the PixelPlex team, we have a highly functional security extension that is currently protecting more than 10,000 users. This number is expected to grow quickly. PixelPlex has also helped us identify almost a million dangerous websites and detect 20,000 malicious smart contracts.

PixelPlex has a reputation for delivering robust software solutions, especially for blockchain-based projects. We chose them because it was crucial to have a team of highly qualified specialists with deep knowledge of Web3 security and development.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

I’m very content with their project management. PixelPlex delivers everything on time and within budget. They’ve occasionally been ahead of schedule.

They’re quite proactive. PixelPlex adjusts different improvements for our extension, backend, and risk assessment algorithms. They take immediate action if they discover bugs and handle issues in the most efficient way possible. 

We have biweekly calls to address project-related questions and make sure we’re on the same page.

What did you find most impressive about them?

PixelPlex is very engaged and involved in the project, which I love. Sometimes they reply to me on weekends or during their day off.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I’m completely happy with their work.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

My recommendation would be to communicate your vision as clearly as possible so that PixelPlex understands the project’s goals and requirements. Also, it’s good to be aware of how the development process is going.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of a blockchain startup.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We were trying to understand the technical feasibility of a blockchain-based software product.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We engaged with PixelPlex provided us with a feasibility study, research, and consultancy services for a real estate investment token we were developing. The team essentially delivered a technical scope that describes the product and our business, and produced a product roadmap that included various features we needed to implement over time.

Moreover, they did a deep dive into analyzing various technical aspects, different blockchain protocols, and security token architecture. The team also helped e understand which third-party services would be required, such as KYC, AML, and wallet creation.

What is the team composition?

I worked with a client relations manager, three researchers, and a technical product lead.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

I researched online and asked for referrals within the industry, and PixelPlex came up as the most suitable partner for this project. After hearing their pitch, acquiring materials from their past projects, and talking with their previous clients, I signed an agreement to work with them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked on this project from July–December 2023.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

I relied on their expertise and experience to build a feasible blockchain solution, which made the engagement highly successful.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

The team consistently adhered to our timelines and stayed within the budget range they initially proposed. In addition, PixelPlex did a great job keeping us up to date on the project's progress.

We typically communicated through Slack.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We were impressed with their general blockchain expertise, professionalism, and overall scoping process.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They did a really good job for us, but they should consider hiring US-based employees. It would’ve been easier for us to collaborate schedule-wise, and the communication would’ve been faster and clearer.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Nothing specific for PixelPlex, but I’d suggest interviewing multiple firms and picking the one that would be most suitable for your needs and goals.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of NuPay Technologies, a technology company based in Ohio. We’re currently in the process of releasing tech products, such as an NFT marketplace with a unique layer one blockchain.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We had an architectural design idea for the product we wanted to build and release into the world, but we didn’t know how to do it.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We initially reached out to PixelPlex and had early discussions about the project. Then, we went through the contract stage and negotiations. Ultimately, we signed some NDAs, and they started to build our products for us. The first product was an NFT marketplace; they built it entirely from scratch.

They worked on design and development using C++, C#, and Solidity. The NFT marketplace also used an Ethereum smart contract specific to our product.

What is the team composition?

At one point, they had 12 developers working on our project, including blockchain engineers and QA people. Our main point of contact was Eugene (Project Manager).

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

We heard their name from a client in the US. He told us to call them, so we searched for them on Google and looked into their background.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about $1.5 million

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with them from August–October 2022.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Since they built the product for us, we haven’t had crashes, bugs, or glitches within the website. Overall, we were happy with their work.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management was excellent. They did what they promised and communicated well with us. They informed us when they were working through issues and called us back when they fixed them.

We used Jira and Slack constantly. Additionally, we had meetings at least twice a week through Google Meet.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Communication was their biggest strength. They kept us in the loop and informed us of the project status.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t think I could tell them how they could do better. They did a good job.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

My advice is to deliver a clear architectural design of what you’re looking to build.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder and COO of Uforika, an original Web3 Metaverse platform providing tools for content creators and gamers. We also have two native gaming experiences within the Metaverse, one of which is a hoverboard racing experience, and the other one is a creature battling experience.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We hired PixelPlex to help us with our platform’s blockchain elements for writing smart contracts.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PixelPlex has not only helped us with our smart contract functionality, but they’ve also helped us get those smart contracts audited for the Fora token, our platform’s native token. Their team has also helped us scope, design, and build a custom wallet and a marketplace for buying and selling NFTs.

For these projects, we first provided PixelPlex with a brief, and they turned it into a scope of work. Then, they divided the deliverables into sprint cycles, which our founding team approved. After that, they designed the pages and built the wallet’s infrastructure from scratch using Torus Wallet, a third-party platform. They also created API integrations to ensure the product was secure. The product hasn’t gone live yet, but PixelPlex has also offered to host it after we launch it.

On this product, users would find a login screen with three different options to log in. One option is to log in through Web2 integrations such as Google, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. The second one is a Web3 login option, where users can log in through an existing wallet. Finally, users also have the option to create a new wallet. Using this wallet, they would be able to see their ID address, send funds to it, make transfers, and withdraw assets out of it as well. The technologies used include Java, Python, GitHub, and C++.

What is the team composition?

We currently work with the project manager, the business analyst, and a blockchain specialist. In the early days, we also worked with the CEO, who is also a blockchain specialist, and several designers.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

We did a lot of research and made comparisons between different providers, and we felt that PixelPlex was the best suited for the project.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent £117,000 (approximately $134,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working with them in March 2022, and it is an ongoing engagement.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The most successful result of our engagement is that PixelPlex has created a fully working prototype from scratch.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

PixelPlex has delivered on time, and they’re very responsive. We usually go through things over a call, and if we find bugs, we let them know. However, we haven’t found many bugs. We also have Zoom meetings once a week, and we communicate daily on Slack.

What did you find most impressive about them?

PixelPlex is very professional and always readily available.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there is anything they need to improve.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure your requirements are clear before going to them.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

Mainston is a provider of crypto services. I’m a coordinator between our internal IT department and our service providers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We needed someone with expertise in crypto technology and in the crypto market as a whole since we were lacking that in-house. We engaged PixelPlex as a consultant and developer for our crypto projects.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PixelPlex helped us develop a technical vision and concept for our project, bringing in a lot of expertise, ideas, and resources that we didn’t have. They created a visionary document covering different architectures and solutions that could enable us to better serve our customers. After our approval, they created a roadmap, set up a team, and started development.

What is the team composition?

They set up different teams for each project we’re running. We have a project manager, an account manager, a business analyst, a strategy consultant, and two researchers for the first project.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

Our CEO knew about PixelPlex and asked me to contact them.

How much have you invested with them?

The cost so far is around $60,000. Our arrangement is we put money in advance in an account, and they take what they need from that account.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with PixelPlex in April 2021, and it’s an ongoing partnership. The first project is expected to finish within a few weeks. The second project, which started in September 2021, is on track for its second phase in the coming months.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

It’s too early to talk about the success of the project, as we don’t yet have any definitive metrics. We do, however, conduct weekly demos with PixelPlex, and we find them very agile and able to analyze and envision the project for us.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

PixelPlex always promptly answers our questions, regardless of the time. Though there have been reasonable delays, their responsiveness remains top-notch. We use Google Docs for sharing documents and Telegram for communicating. 

We’re still well on schedule, and any difficulties we’ve encountered are due to a malfunctioning API and not PixelPlex. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

One impressive thing about PixelPlex is their ability to put together a team based on the client’s request. Their account management, project management, and organization are pretty spot-on, and their communication is always clear. Another strong point of theirs is their pricing; it’s very competitive for this kind of project. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

PixelPlex could improve a little in terms of their technical documentation. The first technical draft was a bit too light for us. I sometimes have to ask them to be more precise, especially when specifying which parts should be developed at which time. Though they end up doing it at my request, it would also be nice to have them proactively correct it themselves.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Assign an account manager from your own company and make sure that that person has a technical background. Even though PixelPlex is able to simplify anything, you will still need a technical person involved in the project to help you understand complicated concepts.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder of Circularr, a sustainable blockchain business located in London.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We have all of the machinery in-house and were looking to connect those with our application to provide full traceability in our blockchain. We turned to PixelPlex to develop a software solution for our business.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PixelPlex helped us architect and build out an MVP for our blockchain ecosystem. The software would provide end-to-end traceability of plastics as they are recycled and converted into textiles and merchandise. We patented the whole process and had PixelPlex develop the solution in JavaScript and on the XRP Ledger framework. The team also utilized the Decentralized Finance or DeFi network and integrated IoT technologies into the software. 

Along with developing a blockchain software, they also delivered blockchain consulting and business analytics services. We tapped the team to help us build an NFT marketplace for our bespoke crypto-asset tokens as well.

What is the team composition?

At the moment, we are working with 10–12 people from PixelPlex. A majority of them are business analysts, blockchain consultants, and developers.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

One of their business developers reached out to me on LinkedIn. I liked their proactive approach because, at the time, we were having trouble looking for folks who ticked all of our boxes. We did research on their company and found their profile Clutch. It was their ratings, coupled with examples of their work and their client base, that really pushed us to engage with them.

How much have you invested with them?

The project costs roughly $200,000. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started our engagement in June 2021 and it is still ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We’ve gotten pretty successful results so far in our engagement with PixelPlex. We can’t name the specific clients that we’ve been able to build relationships with through the creation of the MVP, but we’ve definitely established a customer base in the financial services, entertainment, and sports sectors. We’re hopeful that this project could also guarantee our success in securing grants. 

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

PixelPlex really tries to understand what is that we do. One of their head consultants even came to London to meet with us in person and talk us through the process. We’ve been communicating through Slack and Google Hangouts since then, and we’ve found the PixelPlex team to be punctual and very fluent in English.

It doesn’t feel like they’re a third-party contractor; they’re like an extension of our own team. We never had to worry about them misinterpreting information, which is usually the cause of costly delays. They’re organized, attentive to detail, and able to ask the right questions. That doesn’t even include the fact that, through their experience, they’re able to suggest solutions and better alternatives as opposed to just agreeing to our every idea. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

What really stands out about PixelPlex is their deep understanding of blockchain technologies, solutions, and assets. Through their knowledge and experience, they help us understand the pitfalls, benefits, and drawbacks of every framework and approach.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There’s none that I can think of at the moment.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that you’ve identified a top-level idea that you want to go with prior to kicking off the engagement because this will save you a lot of time and money. However, you could also participate in PixelPlex’s discovery sessions. 

Be ready with clear instructions and feedback as well. Especially with complex projects, you can’t just simply give a top-level requirement and assume that it will be done. You also have to be willing to integrate with their team during the development process.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder of a gaming platform called Proleague.gg.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We needed their team’s expertise in developing the vision and roadmap of our organization.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PixelPlex has helped us bring together our vision and project scope in pursuit of the development of our gaming platform. They’ve conducted thorough research and asked on-point questions to help us visualize how we want our final product to turn out and determine how long it will take to complete it. We’ve specifically signed a nondisclosure agreement with them to maintain the confidentiality of our project.

We continue to rely on their efforts as we approach the development of our product.

What is the team composition?

I work with a team comprised of 8–10 resources.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

I found their team on Clutch and saw that they’re the number one blockchain consulting and developing provider, so I was happy to onboard them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We kicked off our engagement with PixelPlex in June 2020, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

PixelPlex has met our needs by putting together a sound vision and scope that we can definitely rely on as we progress with the development of our gaming platform. 

Their expertise in the gaming industry has also helped them flesh out more on-point and industry-specific solutions for us. Overall, we’ve had a positive experience, and we’re looking forward to receiving more beneficial results from their team in the future.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

PixelPlex is a communicative and well-organized company that’s always accommodating of our needs. I didn’t find the need to set deadlines as they always have impressive turnaround times.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What stands out most about PixelPlex’s team is their evident understanding of our requirements and field expertise. We can always trust their team to come up with innovative ideas and solutions.

Are there any areas they could improve?

PixelPlex is a flawless, well-constructed team. We’ve had a favorable experience with their services through and through.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Take your time in collating the questions you want to ask their team as they deliver the strategies for your company. You can just sit comfortably and wait for PixelPlex to give you everything you need.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) for LaneAxis, the supply chain industry's first Blockchain-backed Shipper-to-Carrier Direct Freight Network. Powered by the AXIS Token, LaneAxis targets the removal of $200 billion in managed broker fees per annum - and that is only in the U.S. This is a global, multi-trillion dollar quagmire that LaneAxis ultimately seeks to solve on a global scale.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire PixelPlex?

We hired PixelPlex to provide best-in-class expertise, strategy and engineering in the development of our Tokenized blockchain platform and integration with our core SaaS system.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Having been involved in the blockchain space for several years now, LaneAxis has amassed a wide network of industry experts in this rapidly emerging and rapidly expanding landscape. We repeatedly heard the name "PixelPlex" as we examined potential partners to help us develop and integrate our blockchain solution. After performing due diligence, and following a series of productive calls, PixelPlex emerged as the clear choice to lead this initiative.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

The LaneAxis Blockchain-backed Direct Freight Network powered by the AXIS targets the removal of $200 billion in managed broker fees per annum - and that is only in the U.S. This is a global, multitrillion-dollar quagmire that LaneAxis ultimately seeks to solve on a global scale. The core LaneAxis SaaS platform, built on patented technology (U.S. Patent No. 9,928,475 - "Shipper and Carrier Interaction Optimization Platform", is fortified by layering in blockchain smart contract functionality and collecting, collating and digitizing industry-wide transportation data - which today is virtually non-existent.

The main users of the network are shippers (such as raw materials producers, manufacturers and retailers) and carriers (trucking companies). Drivers participate under their carrier’s operating authority, and contribute valuable load-level data (which they consent to providing), such as real-time tracking, available capacity, and location based availability. This key information will fuel numerous network features such as AI-powered predictive analytics and driver/carrier performance ratings. These data sets are then presented in the most relevant manner, whether in the form of hard data bundles and/or data visualization of KPIs. This empowers the negotiating parties to make better informed decisions.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Alex Dolgov , Yulia Gushchina , Yuriy Serov Marina Bachmat

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

In a matter of months, PixelPlex helped us design, refine, and optimize the integration of blockchain and tokenomics into our core system. They work fast, they work smart, and they have accelerated our road map to where we need to be.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Everything was completed on time. Regular conference calls ensure this. Additionally, the PixelPlex team delivers regular, accurate reporting on their accomplishments, upcoming tasks, and short and long-term time frames. We use traditional project management tools such as Slack and Telegram, but ultimately it is face-to-face (via video) and voice-to-voice interactions that have ensured a smooth and efficient workflow between teams.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Dedication to excellence, dedication to customer service, and a dedication to the project itself. This partnership would not have flourished without their team's genuine dedication to the project.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

None that I can think of.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and founder of Scargos, a logistics company. We provide a logistics platform and solutions for shippers and carriers to help them communicate and deliver cargo more easily and effectively.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

We needed someone to create an easy-to-use shipping application for our users.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They’re developing custom software for us. PixelPlex created the UI/UX design for shippers and carriers with all the essential features. Our goals were to attract users by simplifying the process of making shipment orders. Additionally, we wanted to provide them with the necessary toolkit to create shipment of cargo. We also wanted to monetize the platform to invite users to subscribe to information on shipment orders.

First, PixelPlex provided research and a discovery phase. They outlined the right solution for us and created the project roadmap which set the tone for development. Their team designed and developed a progressive web app (PWA) with an adaptive UI that runs across devices and also offers our users a great experience.

The app was built in a way that shippers, carriers, and drivers each have their own set of tools to participate in the shipment process. Users can book loads from a live updated dashboard, manage the fleet, and drivers’ profiles. They can easily set up deals and start their execution. PixelPlex also crafted an admin interface for us to oversee statistics and information on the users and visitors.

What is the team composition?

We have a project manager and business analyst. There is a full development team of architects, full-stack developers, UI/UX designers, QA engineers, and DevOps experts.

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

A friend recommended them. I had a tight budget and wanted the project done in a short timeframe.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested over $200,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in March 2020, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We were very happy with the design and functionality of the final product. The PixelPlex team members showed passion and dedication throughout the project. We’re pleased with the quality of completed tasks and the ability to meet deadlines. One of the main challenges was to create an interface for all types of users in separate rows. The team covered it with a tough UI/UX design and architecture to user flow.

Before working with them, I worked with another company. The previous team left us with an overcomplex design and user flows. PixelPlex took time to discover the right implementation and helped find the best solution. We had over 3,000 users during the first several months.  Now our audience is growing. Users are pleased with how easy it is to use. We have a monthly increase in subscriptions.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management is perfect. We are always communicating and do so very easily. Our teams communicate via Messenger and calls. Collaboration is seamless, and they pay attention to every detail. PixelPlex works hand-in-hand with us to make sure the integrity of the project is upheld.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They did a very nice UI/UX design.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, we haven’t had any problems. Everything is perfect.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be open and honest with PixelPlex. Ask for help from them at any time, and be friendly.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I trade cryptocurrency.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PixelPlex?

I wanted to develop software that uses bots to conduct cryptocurrency arbitrage trading.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We first worked with PixelPlex on a research phase that took a few months. The goal was to establish the scope and final deliverable in terms of what it’ll look like. I gave them a few of my ideas, and we eventually landed on a project plan.

PixelPlex has now moved on to the actual software development, which we’ve divided into two phases. We’re currently halfway through phase one, and the team is now working on the UI design. The software will be designed to automatically trade cryptocurrency at various exchanges across the world. Once the parameters are all set, the software will execute trades on my behalf 24 hours a day. I’ll be utilizing the software for myself.

What is the team composition?

I work with Marina (Account Manager), Yuriy (Project Manager), and a programmer. In the beginning stages, I also interfaced with Anastasia (Strategy & Corporate Development Manager).

How did you come to work with PixelPlex?

I did a Google search on the kind of development I needed, and their website was one of the first results. I didn’t see a lot of competitors, so I only messaged two others. PixelPlex’s response was highly superior, so I decided to hire them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent $13,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project began in July 2020, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

It’s still in the beginning developmental phase, so I haven’t gotten around to playing with it yet. However, the PixelPlex team regularly shows me their progress, and everything looks good so far.

How did PixelPlex perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re excellent at meeting deadlines. I’m also pretty flexible with the timeline, so it’s never been an issue if they required more time. However, they’ve only needed extensions once or twice, and they’ve been transparent about it. Overall, PixelPlex is a team of outstanding, honest communicators. We have weekly calls on Zoom or Google Meet to communicate.

What did you find most impressive about them?

PixelPlex’s communication is phenomenal, and that’s the most important thing to me.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they could do better — the project is going well. However, I wasn’t expecting it would take this long, and it’s pretty tricky for the team to give me a specific date because the software is so personalized. Overall, I understand the circumstances, and I appreciate the custom work they’re doing.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you need custom software, give PixelPlex all the information they need. Additionally, be as responsive as possible — you have to match the team’s excellent communication skills to ensure that everything goes well. Finally, challenge them with questions and new ideas.
