Steve Lauck

CEO, Ashfield Capital Partners

You have a great way of getting to the root of the issue and helping us to solve it. Everyone came away feeling that they learned something.


Richard Tomney

former Deputy Chief Investment Officer for Liberty Ridge Capital

You have a knack for uncovering the gems within our own firm that we often overlook.

John Reifsnider

On behalf of all of us at Lincluden, we would like to thank you and your team for the terrific effort and result in creating a new brand for our firm. We have had extremely positive results.


Phil Evans

CEO, Lincluden Investment Management

Your calm demeanor and professional yet probing approach during our sessions was instrumental to the process. It is a highly skilled individual who can collect a disparate group of Type-A personalities and forge a unified and clear message that can be articulated by all of them.


Jerome Heppelmann

CEO, Liberty Ridge Capital

As investment management professionals, we are always wary (and sometimes loath) to bring in outside services to something we consider so personal. All of our fears and concerns regarding the process were proven to be misplaced as you quite adeptly shepherded us to our final goal.


Jerome Heppelmann

CEO, Liberty Ridge Capital

I’ve not encountered anyone in your profession with the same combination of presentation skills, knowledge of our business, ability to teach and personality that you have. From training analysts to present their investment ideas, to coaching portfolio managers, to preparing marketing professionals to close the sale in finals presentations, you have done it all for us — and what a joy to work with!
