Well, since I didn't get a chance to comment on your last OS3 nom, dear Peaky Blinder, I think it's a good time now.
Akame is like a grape; it could be sweet and a little sour, but with time, he grows on you like a vine and maybe some wine! All jokes aside, Akame is a great leader. This is a known fact. With a busy life and working at sometimes over 100+ hours a week, he still had time for KSI. I have enjoyed watching Akame grow as a Head of T&E and Clan Ops leader. With his role as Head of T&E, much work has been put in to improve how we do our events. From my own personal experience, Akame is a very patient lad. With events can come, angry members, it comes with the job, however Akame is always professional. He has even sat down at a party with members to discuss their issues. These conversations always end on a positive note. When I was promoted to HDM, Akame treated me respectfully and helped me learn more about his department. He took the time to ensure that, if needed, I could host an event if no one else could. His teaching strategies are noteworthy. Akame has been a driving force ensuring these events go smoothly, even if he was working. With many drastic changes happening all over the community, Akame (and Atom) and his team have been modernizing the department to better the community and its members.
Regarding his Clan Ops career, Akame has stepped away from leadership several times, like many older-generation folks. However, when he comes back, he's better than before. I love gaming with the members, and they can be pretty honest when they don't like something. When members come and talk with me I hear nothing but amazing things about Akame in Valkyrie. He has done a fantastic job as a General and now can continue that work as a Cofounder. I can not speak about his past Clan Ops career, but today, this man is dedicated, trustworthy, and embodies all that KSI stands for.
You are a fantastic leader; I know you will go farther than I ever did. Congrats on your promotion, you Red Coat!
