What Our Clients Are Saying

Kira Lafond

I can’t praise the work of Spano Pratt enough. I was recently part of a search committee for a non-profit board I am on. I can say with 100% certainty that we would not have ended up with such an amazing leader for our organization if we had not contracted with Spano Pratt. Rose did an thorough analysis of our needs and walked us through every single step. Her vast network of potential leaders gave us a wonderful slate to choose from and her professional persistence kept us on task and kept the details covered.

Tom Stitgen

I had the pleasure of working with Rose as she helped our non-profit organization search for a new CEO. She worked well with the board for which I serve, kept us on task and on time, and most imporatantly brought forth multiple quality candidates and facilitated the selection process. I would highly recommend working with Rose.

Patty Gorski

We have worked with the Spano Pratt team on several occasions. Their work was timely. They were very professional and each time they delivered candidates with the right skill sets and cultural fit for the job. We highly recommend them. In fact, we have to several of our supporters!

Chris Woleske

“Working with Spano Pratt to secure a new CEO for our community foundation was a great success” Chris Woleske said.   “They made the process so easy for us.  Jamie was exceptionally prepared for every meeting, communicated with us flawlessly, and really listened to understand our goals and objectives.  The result is we have a new CEO who is a great fit for the organization.  I mean every word.”
