General Review

Mike came to RL Stevens after a very long tenure with the same company (15+ years).  He was concerned about the confidential nature of his search, as he had recently become a senior partner in the organization and realized how destructive it could be, if his pending transition became public knowledge.

“The developmental stuff was fantastic…. I wish I didn’t have to be so careful in how I implemented the strategies, that really effects my time frames.”

Given the extensive research and spot opportunities, in the middle of the 7^th week, he had identified a national/international advertising company seeking a regional director to penetrate the mid-west market.  This opportunity involved an entrepreneurial skill set, “I had to jump at it…The amazing thing is that I can stay at my current company while I begin to build and shape this venture.  As it grows into maturity, I can step away from the manufacturing industry entirely, not be in a competitive situation, and accomplish my primary goals of:  changing industries, greater flexibility, and an opportunity to be involved in something new.”

“This is going to be a lot of fun… RLS really helped me…

I think I’ll keep you around… convert me to the 5 year contract.”
