"ACG performed a very comprehensive and very successful executive search for WITF. They were extremely cost-effective and efficient, completing a search for us in less than two months. They brought a professional team of experts from the public broadcasting field and overall arts and culture industry. They deeply understood our specific needs and attracted a high-powered senior management professional who could increase contributed operating revenue and complete our capital campaign for a Public Media Center. ACG made a concerted effort to build consensus among stakeholders, including Board, staff, and community. They sought to understand the internal communications culture and style of the existing team in assessing the “best match” with prospective candidates. Their soft skills analysis process brought objectivity and clarity to what WITF truly needed in a senior management professional to work in tandem with our team. We are very pleased with the results of the executive search and would highly recommend ACG to any prospective client."

"The information provided by Donor Insights was key in our new strategic plan. In our stabilization mode, we had relied on the donors we knew. The amount of wealth identified in our audience who had never given, but had been subscribers for years, was staggering. Last year Fort Worth Opera had a $300,000 deficit. This year, with an increased budget of approximately $500,000, we are in the black, have a surplus, paid our debt and have our deferred ticket income in the bank. Some of this success was due largely to Donor Insights."

"The information and insights our employees gained at the Team Building Retreat has opened the door to more effective, sensitive communication between divisions, departments and individuals. It has become common to hear staff referring to DISC in referencing communication styles. Also, staff has requested follow up activities which are currently being planned for the weekly staff meetings. Thank you for this beneficial workshop!"
