In the course of a pivotal change in professional direction, I sought out VERTESS as a consultant to address numerous strategic issues. VERTESS has been a remarkable, trusted advisor, enabling me to effectively move forward with my dreams. I enthusiastically recommend them for anyone who has similar aspirations and who could benefit from encouragement and an innovative approach to their future.

VERTESS has been extremely valuable in helping us look at various growth possibilities in a tough market. I would highly recommend them to other organizations facing similar challenges.

I want to thank VERTESS for the personal attention and support they gave as I planned for the sale of the behavioral health company that my husband and his team operated for 20 years. VERTESS brought expertise and guidance through every step of the process, from the preparation of data, negotiation, and conclusion of the sale of Supported Living Systems. They helped keep my priorities in the forefront and offered alternative strategies for reaching goals. VERTESS kept the discussion on a steady course and gave thoughtful and wise advice at every point in the process, as we moved to a successful conclusion for both companies.

I have known the VERTESS team and worked with them in different capacities over the past 30 years. Most recently, they represented our company in a successful asset sale. They were very professional and respected all of our concerns along the way. Although selling a business is difficult, they made it much easier for all of us. Going forward VERTESS is going to set the standard for healthcare mergers and acquisitions.

VERTESS has an unusual ability to bring out the best in people while at the same time helping them accomplish things they didn’t know they could do. VERTESS is the complete package: a thinker, a communicator and a results-oriented doer.

We consulted with VERTESS to assist us with a complex merger with another nonprofit. Since the merger we have continued to use their services in implementing the merger and integrating our operations. VERTESS has great skills and insights that have provided tremendous benefit and I highly recommend them.

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 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.

VERTESS assisted us through several complex meetings during which we laid out our future growth and diversification strategy. We were so impressed with VERTESS' strong, direct yet friendly style that we asked them back as we contemplated sharing resources with a sister company. By the end of another series of facilitated meetings we concluded that we should merge the two companies entirely. VERTESS helped us through the difficult process of planning the implementation and did it in a very efficient manner. VERTESS is unique in the world of consultants. They not only bring more real world experience than most, they also have real insight into human behavior and their calm yet direct style makes things happen.

VERTESS acted as a trouble shooter and temporary manager with extreme confidence and vision. They came into an organization that needed to rebuild and redesign for success. VERTESS laid a business foundation that has allowed me, as the new Director, to move swiftly into a trajectory of success. They are very skilled at making difficult decisions without the emotional over lay that can get in the way of positive solutions. VERTESS inspired a sense of confidence and self-reliance from all constituents that were involved in the program. They continued as a coach and consultant to keep us on target and moving forward. I highly recommend them as an executive coach and organizational consultant. They cut through weeds and let a 1000 flowers bloom.

VERTESS helped us successfully deal with several complex issues during the process of negotiation while keeping our focus on the goals we had for the transaction. We were extremely pleased with their support and would highly recommend them to other business owners.
