Client Testimonials
George D. Cooper, Chief Executive Officer
Huna Totem CorporationOn behalf of the Huna Totem Corporation, I want to personally express my gratitude for a very difficult job well done. When I announced my retirement several years ago, the Board of Directors elected to handle its own executive search. The new Chief Executive officer was hired; however, after the first year the individual resigned.
Realizing that it was imperative for the corporation to hire an individual knowledgeable with the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act but yet having extensive experience working with professional money, property and forestry managers, the Board of Directors elected to seek the professional assistance of an executive search firm.
This has not been an easy assignment for you. From the outset of developing a working profile to the interview process and Board selection, the demands for locating the right candidate have been very demanding. You have handled the search and interview process extremely well and you must be commended for your patience, understanding of the Board’s interest and concerns, and the ability to be able to present a very qualified group of five candidates to the Board for their consideration.
The Board has selected an individual highly qualified for the Chief Executive position. Your communication with the candidate and keeping him informed in the process assured that he would be available for an interview by the Board even though he had several other inviting offers.
The guidance and direction you have provided to Huna Totem Corporation was very timely and I am confident that the new Chief Executive will be a good match for the corporation. Thanks again for a job well done.
