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.

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 Advisors provided intermediary assistance to us when we decided to sell our human service training company, Practical Training Solutions. We were extremely pleased with their professional approach and practical guidance throughout the entire process, which they were able to expedite, exceeding our initial expectations. The end result was very positive for us as well as the new owner of PTS. I would enthusiastically recommend VERTESS to anyone seeking a productive transition from their company.

VERTESS provided outstanding strategic consulting services that resulted in significant operational and financial progress for our organization over a two-year period. In particular, they helped us to unleash the potential of our managers and other employees as we dealt with a challenging funding environment. They were also a trusted advisor as I was making critical executive decisions that would shape our future. In short, the results were outstanding and highly recommend VERTESS for helping you to see the future and acting on it.

With over 25 years in business, I felt I needed some CEO level consulting for my company. After extensive research, I felt that VERTESS' years of C-level management experience, entrepreneurship history and psychological training and expertise could be just what I was looking for. Turns out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in years. I would enthusiastically recommend VERTESS to any executive that wants to solidify or turn around their company.

Gompers was presented with an acquisition opportunity on short notice and we turned to David Coit and the VERTESS team to help us with guidance and an assessment in order to determine how to proceed. They immediately stepped in with a very professional analysis and guidance which enabled us to proceed with a transaction that has considerable value for our future and long term goals. I can’t say enough about the high quality of their work and I would highly recommend them to anyone in similar circumstances.
