The old saying “it’s lonely at the top” is certainly true. The cumulative responsibility of the entire organization’s performance is a heavy weight to bear. Having been the chief executive for four non-profit organizations, I understand the unique challenges and issues that chief executives face.
We offer a source of solid support, often behind the scenes, for chief executives. The common expectation of a board that the chief executive has all the answers is simply not realistic. In these instances, there is nothing more reassurring than to have a dependable, silent adviser in your corner, whose singular interest is to support you in your position.
From an executive advising client:
“Working with Mark Holdt has been a highlight in my professional life. Mark has an uncanny ability to collect all the facts, assess the resources and create a workable plan with great outcomes. While working with Mark, I was able to uncover nuances in my organization I would not have discovered on my own. Mark’s natural business sense, intuitive listening skills, and genuine passion for professionalism make him a remarkable asset to anyone seeking his counsel.”
