His ongoing professional development courses and trips helped him to easily learn new techniques and perform complex tasks the first time around. Although Imdad is a fast-learner, he is very careful and cautious about his work. That means he repeatedly runs checks on his programs (and others) before making them public to ensure there aren't any hiccups. His quick thinking and cautious personality has helped the company avoid some costly and embarrassing mistakes.
