“When C-Level talent is critical to drive business results, George is the expert who will find exceptional talent that will “fit” the needs and specific role for your company. His best-selling book, The Talent War, highlights that it is leadership and character that distinguishes the best talent, and he should know after hiring/evaluating/assessing over 2500 executives. Many executive resumes may look good, but they may not be the right fit. We need to look beyond our network of colleagues and people we are comfortable with, they are often not the best option. George goes beyond to understand the company, the executive team and what drives the candidate to find the few candidates that are a more perfect fit. He is no nonsense leader and consultant who looks out for both the CEO and the candidate so that a terrific match is found.”
