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.

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 used VERTESS’ consultation services in completing divestiture and sale to a major national company. The process went very smoothly and their guidance was invaluable.

We sought out VERTESS for consultation based on their demonstrated expertise and knowledge of significant changes in the Iowa healthcare marketplace. From the beginning, VERTESS brought thoughtful guidance to the creation of our development and growth plan and involved all key staff and Board members in the process. As a result, we have a united team with a compelling vision for what lies ahead. We will consider VERTESS part of our Genesis team going forward.

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 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.

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 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 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 sought VERTESS’ assistance as we were looking for a strategic acquisition for our nonprofit in a new geographic area. They helped us find the ideal candidate so we could move forward with a very positive transaction.
