"After vetting a number of firms, the Board of Meals On Wheels of San Francisco was persuaded that you were the very best fit as search consultants for an organization like ours. It was a challenging search because we were losing a much beloved and very effective CEO -- but you listened to our staff and board and friends of MOW, you exercised your magic, and you brought to us an incredible array of local and non-local candidates. Since you brought Ashley McCumber to us from Boston, MOW has continued to improve and grow in every way. Devoted, supportive, knowledgeable, wise - you are exceptional professionals in every conceivable way. Thank you, thank you, Bob and Mike!"

"After my experience with Rusher Loscavio at Meals on Wheels, yours was the first number I dialed to get advice on transition management and the search process for the Sonoma International Film Festival. We were faced with a small budget, a small board, considerable financial challenges, and a complex political environment -- the works. You were there for us from beginning to end, with late night calls, facilitating of Board discussions, through many twists and turns in the drama. Your responsiveness and wisdom were invaluable. We can't thank you enough!"
