OPTÎMANCE UPDATE FALL 2004

As we near our 20th anniversary, on a daily basis, our Inc. 500 team supports leaders facing change. The consistent impact of our work includes significant financial savings, reduced undesirable turnover, and less "time in transition."

Striving to be an employer of choice, our customers value the listen first, service second approach. They appreciate customized solutions linked to the strategy and the execution of that strategy.

Our customers are successful - our customers report-

Completed the integration of two family owned retailers in three months – twelve months ahead of schedule.
As a major employer, we saved over $800,000 by a first-of-its-kind internal career resource center that avoided severance and benefit continuation costs.
Additional undesirable management turnover was prevented through a Strategic Executive Development program for a thirty-four year old CEO.
Several candidates were identified for an impossible to find Senior Human Resource Executive with the ability to deal with the media and government regulators.

At Optîmance we do what the competition is not willing to do. As a pioneer in Career Continuation and in Strategic Executive Development, what can we do better?
