Ika Natassa
Project Leader - Wholesale Transaction Banking at Bank Mandiri

"There is only one word to describe Ika Natassa; "Brilliant" As she was appointed to be the Project Leader of
Wholesale Transaction Banking at Bank Mandiri, I was assigned to assist her as Co-Project Leader to engage
various strategic initiatives within Wholesale Transaction Banking. It was not an easy task since wholesale
transaction banking is one of the toughest segments. However, she got the job done. Ika Natassa is a role
model leader who has an extensive knowledge, widespread network, the ability to lead effectively and the
ability to solve problem efficiently. She is the type of leader that will make you feel comfortable to work for
as she has no boundaries for transfer of knowledge, open minded and has a friendly gesture. Moreover, Ika
Natassa’s easy going approach, hardwork credo and out of the box thinking I believe are the key success for
her career acceleration in Bank Mandiri. Moreover, her persistence but with courteous approach makes her
popular among senior management in Bank Mandiri. One unique trait that also defines Ika Natassa is her
ability to multitask. I am still amazed how she manages to do her daily job as an analyst, responsible as
Project Leader of Wholesale Transaction Banking and still have the time to write a book. Her
“extracurricular” activity has produced 3 books and I believe she won't stop there. I am pleased have worked
for a personality like Ika Natassa and I will be delighted to work with her again. I am assured that she will
achieve greater success in her bright future career."
— Yessa Arthur Erriadita, Co-Project Leader - Wholesale Transaction Banking, Bank Mandiri, reported to
Ika at Bank Mandiri
"Ika was my colleague at Commercial Banking Bank Mandiri. I already heard her creativities &
achievements in & outside of workplace long time before i actually meet her; even when that time we were in
different cities. As I guessed, employee with superb talent & achiever like her will be moved to Head Quarter
to get more challenging role & better position in this company. In a short time together in Commercial Head
Quarter I was involved in several project with her and more than enough to prove her quality that was heard
before. No doubt that Ika will become future top leader at Bank Mandiri or anywhere and also more sucess
