“I highly recommend Kathleen and Viewcrest Advisors for filling leadership positions. In fact, the more difficult the search, the more you need her. I haven’t worked with a firm that invests more time and effort to learn about your organization in order to find the right person. My usual experience is that the “pitch” is better than the “reality.” This is not the case with Viewcrest—the pitch was great and the reality was even better.”
