We originally sought VERTESS' assistance to help us make some critical decisions for our future. We had been considering many options and we needed a clearer direction as we expanded our nonprofit operations. VERTESS' consultation was very effective in sharpening our strategic focus and developing a clear map for our future growth, including stronger internal alignment. VERTESS' insights were invaluable for our entire senior team and I strongly recommend them for consultation with organizations like ours.

I worked closely with VERTESS and we prepared our company for acquisition, negotiated a final agreement, and concluded the sale of our company. They skillfully advised us on several key points and were there for us even after closing the deal. Very professional all around.

VERTESS is that rare business leader with the ability to see problems in multiple dimensions and craft solutions that harness innovation and leverage human talent. In collaborating with them on multiple projects I found VERTESS to be a true strategic visionary, with a gift for communicating goals in ways that empower every individual in the organization. Their constant focus on creating value makes them always open to new ideas and never afraid to embrace change. Small wonder other business executives frequently seek their guidance on ways to energize their companies and navigate challenges. I feel fortunate to have worked with VERTESS and to have witnessed first hand their formidable talent for organizational leadership.

We engaged VERTESS to facilitate a re-visioning session as the ANCOR Foundation struggled to set a new direction for our future. VERTESS successfully helped us to sift through some great ideas, identify several obtainable goals and then move forward with the implementation of a very creative plan of action. I highly recommend VERTESS for their expertise in this area.

VERTESS is a creative thinker, thorough and reliable, and a force for change. Their breadth of experience in health care management, particularly in the areas of behavioral health, developmental disabilities and systems change, including building consensus, makes them a unique resource who I do not hesitate to recommend to my clients for outside consulting.

VERTESS encouraged the development of our management team, helping us to improve morale, customer service, and bottom-line results at a major transition point for our company. As an owner, I particularly appreciated their collaborative approach to planning and implementation. Based on our results, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other executives and owners seeking qualified assistance.
