"Our organization is a nationally known leader in the field of substance abuse treatment. After an internal uproar that required us to terminate our Executive Director and CFO, the Board was desperate for outside expertise, support, and executive search to replace our leaders. Fortunately, we turned to Bob Fisher and Mike Loscavio. Thanks to them, we pulled ourselves together, selected excellent leaders from among those they recruited, and then were quickly rehabilitated and thriving as a nonprofit.
I was so impressed by Bob and Mike that I subsequently employed them to recruit a Director of Development to our family foundation. Another success with a great firm."

"I was so delighted, Bob, when you and Mike agreed to help me find a worthy successor to my Development Director of many, many years. Didn't we have fun?! And didn't we do famously with your recruitment!!! It's been special working in this labor of love with you, who are the consummate fundraiser in the Bay Area! Thanks to you and Mike, dear friend and valued colleague."

"Where does one look for expertise in a search for the first professional association executive for an unusual organization like the CFA Society!? One looks for quick learners with business savvy who can quickly understand the complexities of a professional association. We found you; we greatly enjoyed working with you; we learned from you. Thank you, Bob and Mike."
