TESTIMONIALS
"PJ has been a trusted advisor to me and our team. He always shoots it to me straight. His insights and recommendations have been critical in allowing us to help our Executive Leadership Team function better and fuel our incredible growth. His unique blend of healthcare knowledge, expertise across multiple functions, and EQ also makes his assessments of our C-level candidates spot-on. His responsiveness and client service skills are outstanding."
John Kao, Founder and CEO of Alignment Healthcare ($1Bn in revenues, backed by General Atlantic, Fidelity, and Warburg Pincus)
"Asking PJ to assess CEO candidates for our portfolio companies is now standard procedure. He brings a deep understanding of the tech and SaaS businesses we invest in and has helped us dodge some bullets by uncovering things that did not come up in our initial review. He's brought us real peace of mind when we have to make crucial hiring and development decisions."
Founder and Managing Partner, Mid-market PE Fund
"We have used PJ to assess candidates for key C-level positions in our portfolio companies. He understands the importance of really understanding the business and how a particular role ties to our investment thesis. He also helped us avoid some major mistakes by discovering things that had not yet come to light during the recruiting process. His ability to get real data from references who are not provided by the candidate has been incredibly valuable and saved us a lot of time and money."
Principal, Mid-market PE Fund
"PJ has been the best coach I've worked with in my career. He helped me become an even more effective leader by encouraging me to address some difficult things head-on, encouraging me to lean into my strengths, while also making sure I was authentically myself throughout the whole process. His approach was also refreshing because he brought a nice balance of understanding my whole person with my mandate to deliver for the business."
President, major business unit ($2bn) of Global Media Firm
"I was initially skeptical when our private equity sponsors brought in PJ. I don't think most consultants add value. He soon won me and the rest of the management team over with his insights, coaching, and ability to connect with our unique business needs. His organizational review helped both our sponsors and me to get clear on our action plan."
Founder & CEO of PE-backed Global Industrial Company
"PJ has been a critical part of our diligence process for hiring senior leadership overseeing some of our key business units, both revenue generating and support. His knowledge of financial services and what predicts success has been prescient. We have benefited considerably from his rigor and consistency."
