I am writing to recommend Lasantha Jayawardena for his exceptional work as a business analyst. In my capacity as Project Manager I have had the pleasure of working closely with Lasantha and have been consistently impressed with his performance. Lasantha has consistently demonstrated strong analytical skills and ability to gather, analyze, and interpret complex data sets with ease. He is always thorough in his work, ensuring that all information is accurate and complete, and he has a keen eye for identifying trends and patterns that others may overlook. In addition to technical skills, Lasantha has also shown excellent communication and interpersonal skills. He is able to clearly articulate his findings and recommendations to both technical and non-technical audiences, and work collaboratively with stakeholders across the organization to ensure that everyone is aligned and working towards the same goals.

It was real pleasure working with you, It was comforting to know that when we had gaps in our information or needed the steps a process, you were quick to help. If you didn't know the process already, you were quick to investigate it and were quick to get the job done, be it raise the right requests or manage the in-flight tasks, I will always appreciate that we could ask you to help us and could trust that the job would get done with minimum fuss and a calm nature. I'm going to miss working with you LJ, you're a person that does a great job because you enjoy what you do, and that make you simply a pleasure to be around. I hope in your next position you can enjoy a change in place and pace, please get in touch if it doesn't work out. :-)

I was fortunate to have Lasantha aligned to our delivery portfolio at the Commonwealth Bank. Lasantha is always professional and approachable. He is always willing to offer help, and going the extra mile just comes naturally for him. Many times Lasantha has helped both myself and the wider team by offering assistance or be leveraging his experience. The team, as well as his many satisfied customers will sorely miss his presence at CBA.

Lasantha's standard of work is exceptional with thorough in-depth analysis combined with a can-do attitude fits well in any organisation. Thanks Lasantha for your valuable contribution to the various projects that we worked on, your are sorely missed and I'm sure you'll be a great asset to any company who is lucky enough to have you.

Lasantha was an absolute pleasure to work with. His diligence and proactive approach really helped us deliver successful projects. His kind professional approach really brought business units to the table made our engagements always well received. I’m looking forward to working with him again in the future.
