Recommendations
'Through my time as the General Manager of Operations our business undertook critical realignment and restructuring to keep pace with its rapid growth. We went to market to find the best search agency, and for me, the individual to lead that search. I found that with Antoinette Boyd. She understood business, and articulated back to me, in her brief, a clear understanding of what I wanted and what the organization needed in terms of skill sets and personality. She took time to talk to other senior staff in my organization to understand the culture and the key drivers of the business and used clear, precise language in a refreshingly honest style in reflecting that back to me... The level and the variety of talent that Antoinette was able to assemble on all of her briefs was a credit to her skills in this area and always made that final decision difficult! I would unreservedly recommend Antoinette to any major search assignment you are currently contemplating. Don’t for one minute think small Boutique firms can’t cope with the overall demand of large organisations as I know this first hand from our dealings with Antoinette and her business over the last 8 years.'
— Ben Lozankoski, General Manager of Operations Schiavello
