Executive Search

Our executive program has been developed to meet the needs of owner managed and family managed businesses. There are three factors that set us apart from our competition and make us the search firm of choice for these companies.
- The typical search firm provides three qualified candidates, lets the hiring executives make the choice, collects a fee, and leaves the scene. We receive our final payment a year after the person starts on the job. Projects conclude when the hiring organization and the person hired agree a good match was made. This gives some cash flow benefit to clients but more importantly shows our total commitment to success. Read More…

Personal Transition Planning

An owner needs to be financially and emotionally ready to transition out of their business. The financial issues can be analyzed and presented on a spread sheet. The emotional issues are more complex and nuanced. The question that many successful owners struggle with is: “What will replace the satisfying life I now know?” Rather than a positive vision of life after transition, most owners experience concern and fear because they don’t believe life will be as involving and satisfying after a business transition.
We help owners resolve the emotional issues and create a plan for a meaningful post business life.
We take owners through a logical, step by step process that helps the owner uncover his or her deeper needs and interests and plan for an exciting new life.
Team Building and
Succession Planning
A high functioning management team is an engine for success. Building a strong team is a worthy goal for any owner. A strong team will give a company power and vibrancy, free an owner from being overly tied into day to day operations and enhance the value of the business when it is time for transition.
Businesses are built step by step over time. It is healthy to step back and assess whether the structure and people still fit current needs and future requirements. This kind of assessment is essential because it places priority on the continued success of the enterprise. We help owners come to grips with the difficult questions involved in strengthening their organizations.
