Agiliance is the rare private company that excelled during the financial apocalypse of 2009. The company attracted large worldwide organizations from both public and private sectors, establishing pre-eminence in the Governance, Risk, and Compliance software segment. The management team and investor group are stellar and savvy.

This engagement was a great reminder that timing is everything. The Board was clear and disciplined with their requirements for a CEO which enabled us to focus on a small pool of targeted candidates. Joe stood out because he clearly met the Board requirement that the new CEO be excited about the team and possibilities for the company.
