14 years ago, I took a leap of faith and founded Bentley Lewis. I haven't aged a bit ?? The impact of that decision has rippled far beyond what I could have imagined – shaping my life and the lives of so many others who have crossed our path. We've come a long way from our humble beginnings. Now we partner with world-leading businesses across Europe, North America, Middle East, and Asia. While I'm immensely proud, I know the best is yet to come. The privilege of placing leaders in roles where they can make a true difference is a humbling one. Our executive searches have far-reaching effects, touching the companies our leaders work for and the people those companies serve. The work we do matters. There have been many challenges along the way. But as the saying goes, "to appreciate the sun, you have to experience the rain". Those difficulties have strengthened our resolve and made the successes even sweeter. We're placing exceptional leaders onto boards and into leadership positions around the globe! We believe everyone deserves to be treated equally and with?respect. Passion, community, and the endless pursuit of a better way are at our core. Of course, kindness is paramount. It's more than placing people in jobs – it's about connecting the right people in the right way. If you'd like to discuss how we can help you, please don't hesitate to reach out. #business #entrepreneur #leadership #executivesearch #ceo #founder #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

One of the most common challenges that business owners face as leaders is knowing their numbers. Nate Moses, Founder and CEO of Precision Landscape Management in Greenville, SC, shared it this way… “Knowing what our numbers were was a recurring problem. Being a high-growth business, you have to reinvest profits back in for growth, so growth is always important to me. Putting all that work in, doing all that work and not becoming profitable, is something that caused personal and professional frustration. At first I was patient with it, but as I learned more about business and what I as a CEO should expect, I realized you could do both –?a healthy business WILL do both –?it’ll be profitable and you’ll have cash.” We’ve coached Nate and his team, and we can do the same for you. … #batonrouge #neworleans #phoenix #tulsa #businesscoaching #leadershipdevelopment
